Game!:Please share with our regular readers (and your fans) some information about your gaming background:
Hrin: I¡¯ve always been an avid gamer, with MMORPGs being the Achilles Heel of my life. After graduating from NUS (National University of Singapore) in B.Computing, I worked as an Operations Manager for garment accessories in Vietnam for about a year. I had been thinking of relocating back to Singapore to work and so when I was back in Singapore for a break, I received some job alerts in my email. When I saw that it was for a community manager position for an MMORPG, I knew I just had to go all out and do whatever it took to get that dream job. Thank God I did!

Game!: Please tell us a bit about the company behind Granado Espada in South East Asia, Infocomm Asia Holdings:
Hrin: IAH was officially launched in September 2006 with a vision to unite the entire South East Asia gaming market as one market, and with the news that it has secured two top licenses, Granado Espada and Hellgate: London. While GE will be the first game IAH will host, the management team of the company has much experience in hosting games in other countries, most notably World of Warcraft into China. IAH is based in Singapore, while our servers support players from around Southeast Asia, and Australia and New Zealand.
