“Working smarter”, not harder
by Manny Yap
Cebu, October 10th, 2018. I have been with TecSurge for almost 2 years and my time has been full of challenges and opportunities.

Bangkok, March 13th, 2018. I can distinctly remember times when I was neck-deep in configuring, administering and supporting multiple complex systems for a project, and wished I could share some of my technical discoveries and challenges with peers at other companies.
