Some say the 1990s were the lost decade. The myth
of Japan's resurrection out of the ashes of World War II, followed
by years of high economic growth, seemed to crumble before our eyes.
The global socio-economic environment surrounding Japan has changed.
But change can bring opportunities.
Shiratori Pharmaceutical welcomes the 21st Century,
a time for new business in bold directions. As the mists of uncertainty
swirl in the background, we shall seize the moment to create new
values. For a business to move forward into the future, its employees
must have the ability to discover the path that their company should
take, to break new ground, and to take on challenges. We at Shiratori
Pharmaceutical support our employees by fostering a corporate culture
of humble self-study, constantly striving to enhance each employee's
level core competency. At the same time, we must avoid narrowly
focusing on our existing products and services. Instead, we need
to step back and take a broader outlook, giving careful consideration
to our basic functions and abilities in order to focus clearly on
our core competence.
By promoting the union of staff core competency
and corporate core competence,we believe we will create the kind
of business system that is needed in this new century, one that
will be able to deliver a whole range of innovative values and services
to our customers. I would like that Shiratori Pharmaceutical be
committed to the relentless pursuit of new products in concert with
our customers using the miracle of science for the benefit of all
mankind.
