PTW(Taiwan) Engages in Corporate Citizen
Activities through Garbage Clean-up and PC Contributions

PIONEER ELECTRONIC (Taiwan) CORP.(PTW) rolled up their sleeves again set about cleaning up the grounds surrounding the company's facilities. This is the second year in a row that PTW, Pioneer's manufacturing subsidiary in Taiwan, has engaged in this clean-up activity since it moved to its new location last year. In the clean-up this time, participants managed to collect and separate six large bags of refuse weighing a total of 36 kilograms. Shop owners in PTW's neighborhood extended plenty of thanks for PTW's thorough job in cleaning up the area. The company plans to continue conducting its clean-up activities twice a year.

In another of its corporate citizen activities, on September 10 2004, just two weeks before its clean-up day, PTW contributed 10 sets of personal computers to a primary school in Fu-hsing, T'ao-yuan. This is the third consecutive year, since 2002, that PTW has contributed PCs. PTW had been thinking of ways to make effective use of PCs that it no longer uses when a request from the local community motivated the company to contribute them to a primary school. This school is grateful to receive these computers, as they help the school teach its pupils how to use computers at an early age. Ms. Lin, principal of the school, and Mr. Lu, the school's general affairs manager, visited PTW and received the PCs from President Kashiwagi. Ms. Lin presented President Kashiwagi with a certificate of appreciation for PTW's continued contributions of PCs.
