The era known as "Heisei," which began at the peak of the bubble economy, is coming to an end, and we are about to enter a new era. The 30 years of "Heisei" have been a "lost era" and a "revolutionary era" for the Japanese economy. The bubble economy brought about by the high economic growth of the Showa era has come to an end, and the Japanese economy of Heisei, which began with the introduction of the consumption tax, has faced a long stagnation of over 20 years. On the other hand, in the industrial sector, there has been a significant transformation from a society of people and goods to an information society, driven by the rapid spread of the internet. In the international arena, remarkable development in Asian countries led by China is occurring simultaneously with the slowdown of major economies, including Japan and the United States, changing the economic landscape. In such an environment, our company is also developing management aimed at the next generation, focusing on expanding our business structure and product offerings centered around the semiconductor business, while enhancing our contribution to the information industry. At the same time, we began to concentrate on the Asian market starting with the establishment of our Chinese subsidiary in 2010, strongly recognizing that Southeast Asian countries represent a market with great potential for future economic growth and national development. Currently, we are actively working towards the early formation of an Asia link as an organization.
