When I started working more than 30 years ago, there was such a thing as the abacus in the office. And of course, typewriters were manual. I remember the surprise and thrill I felt when electronic calculators and electric typewriters made their appearance.
In the last 30 years, so much has changed. IT has become widespread, and in the streets, it is not unusual to hear foreign languages being spoken -- English, Chinese, Korean and languages from many other countries. Vast amounts of Information make their way around the world and cultural exchange has expanded. In such a dynamically changing world, we have set up a new department to undertake international operations. We hope to provide information from a global standpoint and be of service to people from many cultures.
