We mentioned that we were not satisfied with the Company's growth in the fiscal year ended in March 2012, but we have established a regional head office for the ASEAN region in Singapore to reinforce growth in the fiscal year ending in March 2013. This support structure will be crucial in expanding the OPS and production print businesses in this region. In addition, most of our sales in the Middle East are made through sales distributors, and we also established a regional head office in Dubai to support them. We also set up sales subsidiaries in Turkey, the intersection between Europe and the Middle East, and in Vietnam, as well as an office in Thailand, where we expect business to expand going forward.
