transcosmos received the following comment from Yasuhiro Arakaki, the mayor of Yaese-cho at the signing ceremony on October 5, 2023.
“We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to transcosmos for choosing Yaese-cho as a place for a tree-planting project under the Okinawa Prefecture CO2 Absorption Certification Program. SAKURA and SAKURA festivals are popular in the northern part of Okinawa. In fact, we, Yaese-cho, are the only town in the southern area which has been holding Sakura festivals for more than 10 years, trying to catch up with, and overtake the north, which is not easy. So, we are delighted to hear that transcosmos plans to plant as many as 140 young Sakura trees in a field which FC Ryukyu – Okinawa’s professional soccer team – uses for the team’s training. We are also grateful that the company will plant azalea trees in the Park Golf Course located next to the field. Reducing CO2 is important, but not only that, we sincerely appreciate that transcosmos will make flowers bloom in the park. We hope we can build a good relationship between Yaese-cho and transcosmos from now on. We look forward to working together with you in many activities. Thank you.”
Hirofumi Inoue, Corporate Senior Officer at transcosmos inc. made the following comment.
“transcosmos launched its call center business in Okinawa in 1999. Since then, we have continued to expand our business by setting up data centers and offering associated support services as well as launching a server monitoring business. More recently, our Okinawa team of nearly 100 web designers and project coordinators has been launching multiple projects, successfully developing websites for various clients. We have been receiving words of appreciation from many clients, thanks to our Okinawa employees who all demonstrate outstanding performance. We have a strong connection with Okinawa, and people in Okinawa have been supporting our business for over a quarter of a century. As awareness continues to rise for SDGs and ESG in recent years, our clients and shareholders expect us to lead and drive environmental conservation activities. Knowing that our Okinawa employees have always been engaging in environmental activities with passion, and that Okinawa has a culture of carrying out meaningful environmental activities, we have decided to conduct a tree-planting project here in Okinawa. 160 trees are not enough. Still, we are committed to protect the global environment and deliver results taking years with your support.”
