We will effectively utilize the customer networks, branch networks, and services provided by both parties to support the expansion of the Company's group's forklift truck business in Thailand, as awell as support the growth and create synergies to expand the domestic business by exporting forklift trucks that are nearing the end of their lease in Japan,
