Yasuhiro Fukada:Of course, right now, maybe we are going down to Pan Pacific, it means maybe US and Asia and Australia first as an airline industry, right? And also, maybe as you know, right now we're introducing some of the new products, AutoX or something, maybe this in-flight. System also. I mean, all the airlines suffering some of the IT area, especially in cabin. We do like the supporting for them. Of course, we do like the targeting at this area also. Should be our profitable area also, right? Yes, of course. In theory, maybe we decided to introduce Starlink means maybe Gen Z or something, no internet, no life, right? It means maybe this Internet itself is maybe mandatory items. I mean that maybe almost the infrastructure, right? So we do like to introduce this even in the air because maybe five years later or something, this is maybe totally normal situation to connecting India. But most important thing, maybe first airline to introduce this one, right? So and I mean that maybe all the customer can. Enjoy all the internet, something that's almost the same as on the ground. This is totally good for everybody, I think. I mean, maybe Autonext is supporting for the, especially for workload for the cabin crews and for us, the airline companies. I mean, of course, customers can use it for their own device, smartphone, right? So almost, as you know, on the ground, They can enjoy Uber Eats or something, something, or just order, delivering, payment already done through the smartphone, right? I introduced these services to India. Of course, customers can enjoy whatever you like, they can enjoy. This is totally first concept of services, right? But for us, industry-wise, workload itself coming through is very, very hard. For us, because so many times in and out from the galley to the customers. And also we can reduce that this wrapper should be half. And also most important thing is maybe in-flight meal something we just putting on the aircraft, just ordered fresh meal should be ordered. I mean that we do like the supporting for the food loss. I mean this is sustainability-wise. Of course, most important thing, right? So we do like some social responsibility-wise we can support. Of course, we can giving to some of the, uh, something like this one. Of course they can prepare. Other than the fresh meat, already order we just put on the aircraft. No order, we never put, put in the aircraft. In the middle Never making some fresh meals full of loss. This is very important for us right now.
