Dear website readers, I wish all of you a very happy new year !
Let me say a few words about our 2018, and 2019.
Kyokuyo Shipyard Corporation is glad to let you know that Tetsuo Mitsui, who is leading its design team since more than a decade and known as 'father' of Kyokuyo's SSS (Semi-spherical shaped) bow, was awarded a commendation from the Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism.
May 21, 2018 was the day for the naming and delivery of the S539, a 7,500m3 L.P.G. carrier ordered by Straits Star S.A.. The ceremony was attended by the guests, from her charterers, owners and other stake holders.
On April 18, 4 young guys from Philippines begun working at Kyokuyo. They are interns under the Government's Technical Intern Training Program (TITP), who had completed their orientation courses - including lectures about Japanese language, business manner, traffic rules etc. - after their arrival in Japan last March.
One of the first things those who visit Kyokuyo's office will notice is our collection of 'SSS-bowed' model ships, displayed at the entrance.
Happy New Year 2018! To start this year, I would like to talk about Kyokuyo's 2017 and 2018.

Dear customers, friends and colleagues, happy new year to you all. I want to take a moment to bring you up-to-date on Kyokuyo's plans for 2017.
