sabah 88 lotto started with only 28 employees

At the age of 27, with a belief in his own engineering expertise, Kazuo Inamori founded Kyoto Ceramics (now sabah 88 lotto Corporation) in April 1959 along with seven other colleagues. With another 20 new college graduates, sabah 88 lotto started out with just 28 employees. They focused on producing the "U-shaped Kelcima," a component for television picture tubes, by utilizing the Fine Ceramics engineering technology developed by Inamori. sabah 88 lotto established production for 200,000 units per month even though employees and equipment were limited. At the time, the majority of ceramic parts for electric components were made overseas, but whenever asked, "Can you make this type of product?" sabah 88 lotto immediately responded, "Please leave it to us." sabah 88 lotto made its first steps by accepting jobs that others would not or could not pursue.
