We'd like to introduce the activities undertaken by employees of varying generations in Polyplastics Group.

Happy New Year!
As the year ended and another year is beginning, I look back and feel how quickly another year has gone by. They say the "mental length" of one year is inversely proportional to age—the older we get, the shorter it seems. What kind of year was 2012 for you?
Last year was a big milestone for Polyplastics in which we marked our 50th anniversary. And 2013, as the 50 "plus 1" year, will impart a freshness that along with achievements of the past 50 years is sure to be an accelerating force for significant growth this year.

We want to make P-Mates a regular marker on the road that measures and reports to you on the acceleration of Polyplastics' corporate activities once every three months.
We will continue our efforts to make P-Mates a corporate magazine that helps rapid progress of Polyplastics by deepening the ties generated from the values of the "Polyplastics-Family", through introducing the activities being undertaken by different generations of employees working throughout the world.

I hope you will continue to be faithful readers and contributors to P-Mates this year, too.
All of us on the editorial team extend our heartfelt wishes for your success in the new year.
