TURNING WASTE INTO OPPORTUNITY

In 2019 March, Mike started lesswalk.org a charity organization which imports excess bike-sharing bikes from ofo & oBike globally and give to students in Myanmar who need to walk more than 2 hours to schools for free. Lesswalk plans to buy and give up to 100,000 bicycles for needy students near term. Mike Than is born in Myanmar and went to Singapore at the age of 8 and graduated from Nanyang Technological University with a bachelor of Business in 2008. Mike Than returned to Myanmar in 2011 as the country undergo political and economic reform. Since then he has founded various companies and sold part of the company to a Singapore main-board listed company in 2015. In 2015, with mobile internet users booming in Myanmar, Mike founded bodtechv.com, a Myanmar leading internet business covering travel, food delivery, fintech and edutech. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

丹頓溫，公益項目Less Walk發起人。 「大家可能在新聞報道上看到，我只買了一萬台，其實從頭到尾我真的打算只做一萬台，因為我是個創業者，我的時間、我的金錢都有限。 但在我送單車的這幾個月裡，每一個故事都深深地打動了我。我常常對我自己說，可能我不只做這一萬台吧，我們應該做更多。我希望在這五年的時間裡，慢慢地把這個規模做到十萬台。」
