Celebrating Five Years of Commitment to Health and Innovation: Otsuka Myanmar's Milestones
This year marks a significant milestone for Otsuka Myanmar as we celebrate our fifth anniversary. The celebration was held on May 13, 2024, at the Wyndham Grand Hotel Ballroom, with an estimated 200 attendees, including the Japanese Ambassador, stakeholders, and our long-term supportive partners. During the event, we reflected on the Japanese concept of "Akiramenai," which signifies our commitment to never giving up and always striving for improvement, even in the face of challenges. This philosophy has been a guiding principle for us at Otsuka Myanmar, driving our dedication to health, innovation, and excellence.
Reflecting on Growth and Challenges
An anniversary is a time to reflect on the growth and progress made, as well as the challenges overcome. It offers a moment to analyze successes and learn from past experiences. At Otsuka Myanmar, we have navigated through various challenges with resilience and determination, emerging stronger and more united as a team. We deeply appreciate the dedication and hard work of our Otsuka People, whose unwavering commitment has been instrumental in our success.
Appreciation of People
In-person communications during this anniversary event provide us with a valuable opportunity to appreciate each other's contributions and reinforce a sense of unity. We acknowledge and celebrate the efforts of our team members, partners, and stakeholders who have supported us throughout our journey. Their contributions have been pivotal in achieving our milestones and shaping our vision for the future.
Strengthening Relationships and Team Cohesion for the Future
Commemorating our anniversary strengthens bonds among team members, partners, and stakeholders. It reinforces our commitment to collaboration and mutual support as we face future challenges and opportunities together. At Otsuka Myanmar, we prioritize building strong relationships and fostering a cohesive team environment that promotes innovation and excellence in everything we do. We embody a mindset of
LEARN QUICKLY,
INTEGRITY,
GRIT,
HARD WORK, AND
TEAMWORK.
These core values guide us in achieving our philosophy โOtsuka people creating new products for better health worldwideโ and overcoming obstacles, ensuring sustainable growth and impactful contributions to Myanmar's healthcare sector.
Looking Ahead
As we look ahead to the future, Otsuka Myanmar remains committed to our core values of integrity, innovation, and health. We will continue to explore new opportunities for growth, expand our product portfolio, and deepen our impact in Myanmar's healthcare sector. With the ongoing support of our dedicated team and partners, we are confident in our ability to achieve even greater milestones in the years ahead.
Thank You
On this special occasion, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has been a part of our journeyโour customers, partners, OMM people, and the communities we serve. Your trust and support inspire us to strive for excellence every day.
