These factories can now make piano components with a similar quality as our Kakegawa factory can. With regard to developing affordable pianos, we believe that we can supply our customers with products at lower prices by using lower-cost components from overseas factories while maintaining the same high quality of current made-in-Japan pianos. A4 : Sales of high-end wind instruments are declining. This is why we decided to centralize all production in Japan by moving production from the Saitama factory to the factory in Toyooka.

Thus, we plan to improve earnings in this business by cutting costs. Production at factories in Japan was much lower in the fiscal year ended March as you can see on page This was caused by a big cut in output to lower our inventories. There are no problems concerning the quality of overseas components that are made for upright pianos and lower-priced grand pianos. A6 : The b series is made in Indonesia while affordable pianos use overseas components but are made in Japan.

We have not determined prices yet, but we expect the price to be somewhere in between that of current made-in-Japan pianos and the b series.

In Japan, the b series will remain as the lowest-priced products even after we start selling affordable pianos. A7 : We have been conducting many activities for some time to increase sales in emerging markets. In Indonesia, we started activities about 30 years ago to promote wider use of recorders, mainly at elementary schools.

These activities have been producing good results. To increase the population of young people interested in music in the Asia-Pacific region, we hold a rock festival called Asian Beat every year. We plan to further upgrade these types of activities in this region.

In India and other countries with good prospects for growth, we will conduct promotional activities aimed at increasing the number of people who play musical instruments. A8 : In China, students tend to learn how to play musical instruments in elementary and junior high school but stop playing an instrument in high school to prepare for university entrance exams. This is why we are considering programs aimed at convincing university students and adults to resume playing an instrument.

We believe that another reason for weak sales in China is the lack of demand associated with marching bands, unlike in the United States. A10 : In Europe, our market share has declined in some countries because of falling demand for high-end products and the emergence of OEM models from Chinese manufacturers. In North America, cuts in school budgets following the collapse of Lehman Brothers are a major cause of the downturn in sales.

The rate of decline is currently starting to slow, and we hope to see a recovery going forward. Under phase-I, the company will manufacture acoustic guitars and portable keyboards which will be later diversified to portable audio speaker from Yamaha is planning to tap education institutes in India which stress on the importance of learning music.
