3. NEXCO EAST 's efforts to foster momentum for World Heritage registration

NEXCO EAST Niigata Regional Head Office has supported efforts to have the "Sado Island Gold Mine" registered as a World Heritage Site through collaboration with Sado Island, such as: 1) selling value package deals for travel to Sado Island; 2) selling products exclusive to SA/PA that use salt from Sado; and 3) introducing tourist information about Sado Island in the web game "Echigo Road GO."
We will continue to promote business activities that lead to the promotion of sustainable tourism and the revitalization of local communities.
