Since 1964, junior staff members who have been with us for more than five years have participated in our practical training program. The trainees are sent to an overseas subsidiaries or representative offices for a period of one or two years. This has greatly contributed to the development of our overseas workforce. Although we initially sent only a few employees a year, we currently send approximately fifty workers to branches throughout the world every year. We train them over the long run to be able to work anywhere throughout the world, providing with such extra training as advance preparation and follow up study.
