On Tuesday, September 4, 2018, Typhoon Jebi, the strongest typhoon to hit Japan over in past 25 years, made landfall on the western part of the Japan.  We appreciate the warm concern of our many clients and associates, evidenced by the numerous messages of support we have received.

Fortunately, although damage in our area of Japan was significant, our firm and facilities were not damaged and we have been able to continue operations normally in our offices in Osaka, Tokyo and Nagoya.

At this time we would also like to express our sincere sympathy to the people affected by this disaster.  Thank you very much for your ongoing support.
