/ Letters to Comrades I: Formation

Letters to Comrades I: Formation written by Shao Yung-Tien, the founder of the YUIMOM Group, charts every milestone between October 2017 and August 2020. Throughout this transformative period, the group evolved from a modestly-sized construction company with around thirty loyal and dedicated members of staff into a significant venture with over 200 new members of the YUIMOM family with an average age of 25. During this intense and hectic period as the group prepares for the opening of the Silks Club hotel, the founder recognises the need to rally the troops and commences writing regular communications to all employees to provide inspiration and guidance.

In late 2018, the contemporary art museum ALIEN Art Centre was opened, and in 2019, The UKAI Taipei was established, resulting in a substantial rise in the employee count to approximately 350, officially cementing its status as a group.

In early 2020, some esteemed colleagues suggested the idea of compiling the letters from 2017 to 2020 into a volume entitled "Shao’s Letters". The decision to use "Formation" as a subtitle was made as it accurately reflects the journey of recruiting young individuals, harnessing collective energy and uniting forces.

This is a collection of letters from the founder, demonstrating remarkable fearlessness in the face of daunting challenges and an unwavering determination to guide team members into uncharted territory. His words are sincere and genuine, inviting all to embark on this journey together.

These letters emerged spontaneously and organically.
There is no plan, no agenda,
No timelines set, no calculations made.
Just the genuine desire to share a few insights with the world
