Week 8 - Sharing Session

Assalamualaikum

As what have been promised by Dr Ummi,  This week, we have an industrial sharing session from the owner of  O-SHIMA restaurant , madam Asnidar Hanim Yusuf. Madam Asnidar have shared her experiences in conducting Japanese food restaurant with his husband. Its quite interesting and enjoyable session. I got impressed by her passion and spirit.  From the session, we got many input and new knowledge from her.

Madam Asnidar Hanim

Madam Asnidar possessed  her degree and master  in engineering from a university in Japan, but pursuing her PHD in business at USIM.  She and her husband decide to start up a Japanese food restaurant as they are Japanese food lovers. They really love to eat japanese cuisine. They have many franchise and kiosk especially in Klang Valley.

  
Apart from that,  madam  Asnidar also shared about her failure in business, how she faced that failure when she forced to shut down a few of their restaurant because of some problems.  But she never give up and always think positive in whatever happen, and take a step to climb back.  

I will remember her advise,she said that, "we need to be positive all the time so that we can success in our life. Its normal to fail, but we need to bounce back." I really admire her. =)

          

In order to sustain the original Japanese taste on their cuisine, in the meantime use the halal raw materials, they proceed to make their own recipe.   O-SHIMA also have a problem at first to deal with JAKIM to get the Halal certification. But as a muslim entrepreneur, they will make sure that all the material use in making the Japanese dishes is halal and clean. Thats make this restaurant differ from the others Japanese restaurant.

Thats all, thank you.
