The focus is, what do we want to design. What needs to be saved, what could be an adaptive re-use of existing space, of open buildings, (whether) something new could be introduced.

We believe that we should focus on IC design efforts and training the talent in Singapore, so as to leap forward in our business activities. We are going to invest 10 million [Singapore] dollars in our people. Our IC design expansion this time is also in line with our basic business principle of grooming people before making products. We would like to welcome promising people to join us.

It is impossible to design a system so perfect that no one needs to be good.
