I would like to pass my warmest congratulations to KOSEN for its 60th anniversary. KOSEN has proved to be a globally unique success story in creating new skills and innovations in Japan for the benefi t of the whole humanity.

It has been a great pleasure to co-operate with KOSEN over the years. Our shared projects have provided us with numerous learning possibilities and given use concrete ideas on how to support our own operating region better.

I would also like to pass my compliments to the long-time President of KOSEN, Dr. Taniguchi, for his inspirational and visionary leadership. Rarely has an organization and its president have been as successfully aligned as in the case of KOSEN and Dr. Taniguchi.

May you enjoy even more eff ective decades to come on your quest for providing the best engineering expertise in the world.
