As one of the companies operating in Malaysia under Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI), we had no choice but to stop our operations as to comply with the restriction of Movement Control Order.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>At the end of April 2020, SOEM resumed operations in progression upon obtaining MITI\u2019s approval.\u00a0 There were many unexpected and critical challenges under the new norms throughout this timing.\u00a0 We started the production for Foxconn products, but we were not allowed to ship out our products without quality validation by technical experts from Foxconn. \u00a0As such, we had to get our quality validation done by sending samples to Foxconn designated sites aboard and also Foxconn would check and confirm our production processes via CCTV.\u00a0 Although it was hard, we still got through this challenging and turbulent phase.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>On 12 August 2020, we finally got green light from Foxconn to ship out our complete set of the said products. \u00a0To commemorate the hard work of these few months, a simple ceremony for this 1<sup>st<\/sup> lot shipment of 23 pallets (3,800 sets of Foxconn Product) was held at our finished goods warehouse.\u00a0 This ceremony was witnessed by the key personnel of Foxconn Production.\u00a0 During the ceremony, the Managing Director Mr. Katsutoshi Teraoka expressed his gratitude to all concerned employees for their continual support and effort.\u00a0 At the end of the session, a candy sweet was issued to all attendees as well as all Foxconn production staffs through HR Department as a gesture from the Company to thank and motivate them.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_19655\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/global.sharp\/were_sharp\/2020\/09\/14\/19652\/01-19\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-19655\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-19655\" class=\"wp-image-19655\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.global.sharp\/were_sharp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/01-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"376\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-19655\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Speech by Managing Director Mr. Katsutoshi Teraoka<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_19656\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/global.sharp\/were_sharp\/2020\/09\/14\/19652\/02-16\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-19656\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-19656\" class=\"wp-image-19656\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.global.sharp\/were_sharp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/02-6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"400\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-19656\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ribbon-Cutting by Managing Director Mr. Katsutoshi Teraoka, accompanied by Business Administration Division Deputy Senior General Manager Mr. Purushothaman A\/L Raju<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_19657\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/global.sharp\/were_sharp\/2020\/09\/14\/19652\/03-13\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-19657\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-19657\" class=\"wp-image-19657\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.global.sharp\/were_sharp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/03-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"381\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-19657\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Loading complete sets in a container<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This 1<sup>st<\/sup> lot shipment launching ceremony symbolized a new beginning of SOEM after overcoming a hard time.\u00a0 Together, we shall keep SOEM moving!!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>S&amp;O ELECTRONICS (MALAYSIA) SDN.
