the Japanese market will continue to take a cautious wait-and-see attitude towards capital injection.

in overseas markets, we see that in some rising countries, including Southeast Asian countries, their markets are very active. The economies of North America and Western Europe seem to be recovering from their worst. These conditions mainly depend on the overall level of the company, which is considered to be a positive factor, and we are looking forward to economic recovery.
