Here, you can view all of Kyokuyo's life logs documented over the past 20 years. This is who we are.
We received a special guest on February 1, 2010. Mr. Kunji Irahara, ex-chairman of Kyokuyo Shipyard Corporation came to our factory.
As reported in a fairly big article by January 27's Nikkei, Japanese leading economic newspaper, Kyokuyo Shipyard Corporation will start building a new series of 2,000 units type pure car carriers with an innovative hull design which significantly reduces wind resistance.
A happy new year to all of you !
On this first day of the year, let me talk a little bit about Kyokuyo's 2010.
Kyokuyo has recently entered into a long-term contract with a language education company for further improving the English communication skills of its employees.
Do you know Kyokuyo set up a cooperative in 2004 with several other companies in shipbuilding industry? In addition to group purchasing, it runs a trainee program, which makes it possible for young Chinese technicians to train in Japan.
Kyokuyo has installed 6 sets of roller fender systems in its main building dock. Together with block factory refurbishment, this is the highlight of the series of investments that the company has been focusing on to upgrade its overall manufacturing process efficiency.
April 1, the first day of a fiscal year, is the day of personnel assignment and reassignment of Kyokuyo, like many other Japanese firms. This year, no less than 20 employees were reassigned, and most cases are that of mid-level members who gained appointment to a higher or management position within the framework of the managerial challenge for organizational rejuvenation.
Tetsuo Mitsui, Kyokuyo's senior managing director, delivered a special lecture at Ito New Campus of Kyushu University on January 22, 2009.
Wishing you all a happy new year, I would like to say some words about 2009's Kyokuyo Shipyard Corporation.
Japan is traditionally known as country of career-long employment and escalator system. Things are changing slowly though. Nowadays, one can switch companies more easily than before as labor fluidity is increasing.
On October 1, the first day of the 2nd semester of 2008, at 8 clock in the morning, I introduced Kyokuyo's action plan for 2009-2010 under new slogan "For our future. Re-challenge 2010" to all the employees and subcontractors.
Kyokuyo's office building annex was extended to 3 floors this summer, to provide an ample and organized space for our growing design division.
After the company's 71st regular shareholders' meeting and subsequent board meeting held on June 27, Kyokuyo Shipyard Corporation announced board of directors for 2008/2009 and the creation of new post of corporate officer.
To old residents, name of "Shimonoseki Stadium" sounds specially nostalgic. Long time ago, when whaling business was permitted and active, Shimonoseki had thrived on fishery.
Happy new year! I would like to wish a prosperous new year for everyone of you.
