SPC is planning to organize a series of press tour to Japan's top high technology factories this year. The first of this series is a visit to Toyata Tsutsumi Factory which makes the third generation of Prius, Japan's top hybrid car. In order to meet the huge demand of consumers, the Toyota production team works at their top speed at present. Photo taking is not allowed but Toyota Public Relation will provide some copies of Prius photos to the participants of this tour.

If you would like to attend, please register your name, telephone number/s and affiliation at the front desk by 6 p.m. Monday, Aug. 17.
Participation is limited to 20. We anticipated high demand for places and will operate a lottery in the same way as was done for the Iwo Jima tour. (Two spots reserved for SPC members)
