Daizen Group Chairman Honored with Japanese Imperial Decoration

We are delighted to announce that our esteemed Chairman of the Daizen Group, Mr. Zembe Yabe, has been awarded the prestigious Order of the Rising Sun, Gold and Silver Rays (旭日双光章, Kyokujitsu Sōkōshō) by the Japanese government. This distinguished honor, conferred by the Prime Minister of Japan on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor, recognizes our Chairman's exceptional contributions to the warehouse industry and disaster recovery efforts.

A Legacy of Leadership in Crisis

The award particularly acknowledges our Chairman's pivotal role during one of Japan's most challenging times - the Great East Japan Earthquake. As President of the Fukushima Prefecture Warehouse Association, he demonstrated remarkable leadership in coordinating crucial relief efforts. Under his guidance, emergency supplies were successfully delivered to over 950 evacuation centers across a six-month period, establishing efficient logistics routes during a time of unprecedented crisis.

The Order of the Rising Sun: A Symbol of Excellence

The Order of the Rising Sun, Gold and Silver Rays, stands as one of Japan's most respected decorations. Established in 1875, it represents the nation's gratitude to individuals who have made significant contributions to Japan's public service and industry development. This fifth-class distinction in the Order of the Rising Sun is awarded to select individuals who have demonstrated exceptional achievement in areas such as local governance, industry promotion, and public service.

Bridging Myanmar and Japan

This achievement is a testament to the invaluable support and collaboration of the warehouse association and it partners, alongside the dedicated efforts of everyone at Daizen Japan. It reflects our organization's commitment to excellence and service across borders, embodying the spirit of international cooperation and industry leadership that defines the Daizen Group.

Looking Forward

This imperial decoration serves as both a recognition of past achievements and an inspiration for our future endeavors. As part of the Daizen Group, we remain committed to upholding the high standards of service, innovation, and community support that this award represents.

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to our Chairman on this well-deserved recognition and look forward to continuing our mission of excellence under his visionary leadership.
