It has been an honor to have served the Philippine market and I am very blessed to have worked with amazing people that have shown great passion and dedication towards Mitsubishi Motors.
Though there are a lot of challenges that we encountered in the past, I consider myself lucky to have been part of a strong organization that demonstrated admirable resiliency during the most trying times. I am confident that I am leaving MMPC to good people that will uphold its values and will serve the brand well. My successor Mr. Takeshi Hara is a well-seasoned Mitsubishi Motors executive who has extensive experience in sales, marketing, aftersales and business operations. I have no doubt that he will propel MMPC to new heights.” – Mutsuhiro Oshikiri,Outgoing President & CEO – Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation
