Dongha Kim Wins, CEO Loses

Dongha Kim, our youngest student beat Sangeeta Mahajan, NIC's CEO, 10-4 in an 'English Only in the Building' friendly challenge.

Dongha and Sangeeta started a game that required Dongha to be seen speaking English at all times at NIC. Over a two month period, Sangeeta caught Dongha speaking Korean only 4 times, though he quickly switched to English as soon as she spotted him unawares. After a long-drawn struggle from Sangeeta for points, Dongha won hands down 10:4.



Sangeeta acknowledged defeat at a student assembly and presented Dongha with the agreed prize of an assortment of chocolates. "This is one of the very few times in life that I am very happy to be the loser", she said.

Well done, Dongha! NIC is very proud of you.
