My warmest regars to all business partners and employees.

First of all, let us all show our gratitude to the all mighty for his blessings upon us that Express Group keeps growoing and developing. It is beyond happiness for me that I can still be with all of you in this 17th year Express Group. This business has taken a long journey since it started in 1989. During that journey, we have gone through plenty of obstacles, which of course includes the 1997 economis crisis which was a tough period for any industry. Yet we stay strong and keep moving forward with our solid teamwork.

“Express Group”, as one of Rajawali Corpora business units, has recently found the most appropriate operational system, the partnership system. It is where our drivers, regarded as working partners, have the change the personally own the taxi unit that they operate through a mutually agreed terms and conditions. Through the system, we find profitable and long lasting cooperation betweeen the company and drivers as main partners. Further more, not only can Express Group survive, but also grow rapidly amidst the second economic crisis in 2007  due to the significant oil price raise, and in which was a big hit to the national Industrtry and banking.

In the present tight competitive era, Express Group has been able to confirm its existence and growth. Express will, in fact, expand the business from a merely taxi operator to order transportation services such a fleet Management , service owrkshop and recently  launch Premiun taxi - TIARA EXPRESS.Going into the year 2009, with Solid teamwork, contribution, support and commitment from all employees and business partners, I am highly optimistic that Express Group will maintain its growth and keep its excellent existence as a Major  Transportation company in Indonesia.Therefore, I would like to encourage all parties to unite in achieving the Goal Express Group to be the leading Land Transportation Company.
