Kamikawa No. 2 Factory Groundbreaking Ceremony
Tuesday, March 5, 2024 Although it was the month of Yayoi, the day was chilly and the temperature was low from the morning, but we asked the chief priest of Fujioka Suwa Shrine to be the chief priest and held the groundbreaking ceremony for the Kamikawa No. 2 Factory.
During the ceremony, we asked President Matsui of Shigensha Co., Ltd. to perform the provisional ceremony, and Managing Director Saito of Fuyuki Kogyo Co., Ltd. to perform the shoveling ceremony, and Marumo performed the shoveling ceremony on behalf of the company. Afterwards, seven of our employees involved in the construction of the new factory participated in the tamagushi offering, and prayed for the safety of the construction work.
We have embarked on the construction of the Kamikawa No. 2 Factory in order to achieve two goals: a growth strategy for the cold forging business in the near future and resolving safety management issues at the Fujioka Nishi Factory. All of our employees will continue to work hard to provide our customers with even higher quality products in the future.

16th Automotive World
Our company exhibited at the 16th Automotive World, which was held at Tokyo Big Sight from January 24th to 26th, 2024.
This exhibition is one of the largest in Japan, and the number of visitors was much higher than
other exhibitions I have attended so far.
Our booth was located in East 8 at Tokyo Big Sight, and although it was at the edge of the
venue, we were able to attract many customers. In addition to our clients and partner companies,
many overseas companies also visited our
booth, which made us realize once again that this was an international exhibition.
We will continue to actively participate in exhibitions in order to develop new customers both at home and abroad. Thank you very much to all the customers who visited our booth.

New Face
Ooi Aikleng
General Affairs Division, Information Systems Group
My name is Ooi Aikleng.
I'm from Malaysia and have been in Japan for 6 years. I have no problem with everyday conversation in Japanese, but I still find honorific language difficult. I can also speak English, Chinese, and Malay. I love traveling and have been to many places. I especially love Mt. Fuji. I recently got my Japanese driver's license, so I would like to visit other places as well.
I have been working at Gunma Seiko since September 2023. In February 2024, I am assigned to the newly created “Information Systems Group” under General Affairs Department, where I am in charge of strengthening security and computer-related work. There is still a lot to do, so I look forward to your continued support.

GST Topics① NEW YEAR PARTY
We held our New Year's party in the GST parking lot on January 12th. This year's costume theme was "BACK TO SCHOOL", so we all participated wearing school uniforms.
This was the first time we held the event on company premises, at the request of the Thai people, but everyone had a great time. We're looking forward to the next one.

GST Topics② GST SONGKRAN
On April 11th, we held a ceremony at our company before the Songkran (Lunar New Year) holiday.
Of course don't know what is being said about.
The Japanese people always get their turn, but I always think they should show me how to do it first.
The 14th term has just begun at GST. All of us will work together to do our best so that we can continue working smoothly without any major issues.
