1. Slice beef thinly into 1"x2" pieces (if you do this while it is partially frozen, the pieces will be much thinner, and the process easier).
2. In a bowl, combine ginger, sugar, soy sauce and garlic; add beef.
3. Allow meat to marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes, or refrigerated, for up to several hours.
4. In a wok, heat the oil; drain beef, reserving marinade.
5. Stir-fry beef over high heat until browned; add corn, green peppers, mushroom, onion, and Thai chilies, stir-frying for 1 minute.
6. Add marinade and beef stock; reduce heat to medium and cook for 3 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender.
7. Meanwhile, stir the cornstarch mixture, oyster, and fish sauces together in a small bowl; stir them into the stir-fry, blending them in well, until mixture thickens.
8. Serve stir-fry with hot steamed rice.
