Message from New General Manager: Du Jianting
I was assigned to Shanghai in April of this year, succeeding the former General Manager, Shigeki Wakasugi.
For the past 14 years, I have been involved in the alliance and sales of ship engines and marine equipment for mostly China.
A characteristic of Chinese customers is that they are looking for more human connections.
I believe that providing support that is close to the customer, when there is an incident, will lead to accumulating good experience using our products, and that it is very important to foster and maintain a good relationship of trust.
This is my second assignment following my previous assignment to Shanghai in July 2016.
The Chinese market environment has changed greatly from six years ago, such as the recent expansion and reopening of Chinese shipyards, increased orders for LNG carriers and ships using new fuels such as methanol.
In this context, I would like to utilize my past knowledge and join forces with my local colleagues to provide customer support with a high level of satisfaction through quick footwork. I look forward to working with you.
Message from Departing General Manager: Shigeki Wakasugi
After my 3-and-a-half-year assignment in Shanghai, I will be transferred to MHI-MME Tokyo branch office as of April 2023. Looking back to October 2019, Covid-19 became a pandemic within a few months of my assignment to Shanghai.
My expatriate life was at the mercy of the infection situation, as traffic to and from the country was disrupted, and severe restrictions on activities and lockdowns were imposed.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all our customers and partners for their cooperation, the hard work of my local colleagues, and the support from Japan, which has enabled me to continue my work under these circumstances.
Now that China no longer has restrictions on activities, the country's economy is expected to become even more active, and China is becoming an increasingly important market for ships and shipbuilding.
The new general manager of the division, Mr. Du, and all of our members will continue to do their best for our customers and stakeholders in China. We look forward to your continued support. Thank you very much.
