Beginning The New Class!

( IBC July 18, 2008 ) This is the fourth day of the new academic year as all the teachers and students are conscientious in it as the good beginning indicating half way to success.

IBC's students are international. The teaching staffs are also from worldwide, for instance, Korea, China, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Belgium and Thailand.

The teaching staffs teach seriously while the students study diligently. In such an environment, inevitably reminiscent of a great ancient Chinese poet, Su Dongpo's poem "Bamboo", in which it sounds,
It would rather have meals without meat but we can't live without the bamboo;
It makes a man thin without meat but it makes a man vulgar without bamboo.

The meaning is : A man can live without meat but not the knowledge.
