Japan Business Trip

Centenary 

To be frank i think im really cruising my luck this year.
Among all our staffs I was selected to present for the 1st GQCC in Japan. My initial intention was target to get the top kaizen with the rumors of RM1k rewards. But instead, i ended up won a trip to Japan for the 1st GQCC Convention. yeay?!?

Before heading to Nagahama for GQCC, of course some meeting in Maibara RC. Meeting up PJ leader for FY2013 project details and planning. pure business.

The presentation really is not my main concern. I dont really feel stress or nervous. Maybe in my head im not going to win nor impress anyone there. those groups were like saving few hundred k for their production line and stuff, and humbly ours are only simple YWK in 3S/3T. 

A quick few hours meeting then move to Nagahama for GQCC. ykrc was one of the lucky 10 selected over 50 groups from Yanmar global. Grand opening i can say, top management was there, special guess were there, president was there.. Anyhow check out our sepanduk.

The whole trip ended with lots of information. There are planning from Maibara, new project research, 2013 qualitative kaizen, Yanmar global staff information exchanged, reports, etc.. A very good experience, good exposure. A once in a life time chances. Thx God for everything.
Eventually after this trip Im a kagawa-cerezo fans. haha! Good night.
