According to the CEO of Everchem, Mr. James Kim who is also the Chairman of the Korean Education foundation, joining the charity event such as this has always been Everchem’s intention to give back to those in need.

It was a wonderful experience indeed. The charity events allows us, to enjoy ourselves while giving with the flow good music from all genres-from Golden Oldies, R&B, C&W to Current Hits, flowing beautifully into The Victorian Ballroom of Holiday Villa Subang, overlooking a very scenic lake with the beautiful wood paneling and grand chandeliers that the ballroom has. It was indeed, a great platform and memorable experience for all of us involved and we will definitely do it again next year.
