Lastly, we are making progress step by step as we head
toward our centennial anniversary. As set forth in the Teijin
Group’s corporate philosophy, I hope that we shall strive to
“enhance the quality of life,” become a company that
“empowers its people” and grow “in harmony with society.”
Working with all of you, I hope to create a new Teijin and
celebrate our forthcoming centennial anniversary with a
positive feeling.
