Dear Entrepreneur really appreciate your work. How do you turn wood waste into briquette? I need to know this technology and implement it in my country. And when this briquette meets the fire, doesn't it release the smoke hence CO2? If yes, my idea would go to dustbin, for somebody who wants to start up such green business. Please guide as soon as you see this comment. Tx!

Good video promoting HiSense, but as you state promote small business's and entrepreneurs, at some point i would have agreed that it might be true, but recently had other experience where as Hisense exploit small business owners rather than to support so much so that they either steal money from service agents, and if queries is made it said that service agents steal from Hisense, that said i actually think it other way around. Mr Kahn, u sent a positive email to Hisense regarding repairs we made to your appliance once, and so will all the service clients and that makes a person more willing to go the extra mile in achieving good service replies, but as noted as a small business myself i actually train people to work on appliance's as well, so would like to know how you suppose to pay them or anything for that matter if Hisense steals your money, accusing you of stealing and then want to end your contract because you raise questions?
Nice IMAI
Awesome
Congrats brother!
