A company wants to develop in the long term and build a so-called “happy enterprise,” it needs to be in an industry that possesses a certain degree of stability and has the potential for future development. In addition, a company must have a perfect internal system which is the cornerstone of enterprise development. This year, Chugai Pharma Taiwan Ltd (台灣中外製藥) once again won the “Best Companies To Work For In Asia” award presented by Asia’s most authoritative human resources publication “HR Asia.” This year’s competition has 292 entrants, and only 6 were pharmaceutical companies. Therefore, the competition was fierce for all entrants. But what is more extraordinary is that Chugai Pharma Taiwan has won this award for three years in a row since 2019.
The success of a happy enterprise leads to mutual realization of the company and its employees
This year, Chugai Group announced its new growth strategy: “Topi2030.” In addition to looking forward to becoming the world’s top innovator in the pharmaceutical field by 2030, this strategy also implies growing and sharing prosperity with employees, with the key to cultivate talents and communicate effectively. In addition to regularly reviewing the company’s workforce situation, Chugai Pharma Taiwan also customizes career development plans for employees, arranges computer skills training, English and Japanese courses for them every year. The company also provides complete subsidies of professional training to encourage employees to enhance their competitiveness. Meanwhile, the company’s efforts to promote internal internship programs aim to put people in others’ shoes and encourage brainstorming between departments. Through genuinely effective communications, employees and managers develop real listening and understanding with others, which is then internalized into their daily work to create a more efficient work model.

Palau is again on the front line as China, and the US and its allies prepare their forces in an intensifying contest for control over the Asia-Pacific region. The democratic nation of just 17,000 people hosts US-controlled airstrips and soon-to-be-completed radar installations that the US military describes as “critical” to monitoring vast swathes of water and airspace. It is also a key piece of the second island chain, a string of
