In response to the tragic loss experienced by so many in Sichuan province in China, which was rocked by a powerful earthquake on May 12, the NYK Group has decided to make a donation of 10 million yen to aid the people of this area.

Furthermore, the NYK Group has started to collect donations from individuals within the group in support of relief activities within the quake-stricken area.

NYK is also examining various means to help through use of the company's ocean, land, and air transport network. More concrete details will be released at a later date.
