The four foreign students have arrived in China since Nov 2022. This visit was arranged by a friend of Tysim, Mr Shao JiuSheng living in Suzhou. The purpose of their visit is not only to enrich their China experience during their two years stay in China but also to get to know more about the fast growing manufacturing industry of China. They are impressed with the excellent presentation jointly delivered by Mr Phua Fong Kiat, Vice Chairman of Tysim and Mr Jason Xiang Zhen Song, the Executive Deputy General Manager of Tysim.  

They are given a good understanding of the four business strategies of Tysim, namely Compaction, Customization, Versatility and Internationalization.  

Compaction: Tysim focuses in the niche market of small and medium sized rotary drilling rig to provide the foundation industry with rigs that can be transported in just one load to minimize setting up cost.

Customization: This enables Tysim to be flexible to meet the demand of the customers and to build up the capabilities of the technical team. The used of modular concepts results in unmatched production efficiency.  

Versatility：This is to provide all round services needed by the foundation construction industry including Sales of new equipment, trade-in of used equipment, Rental of drilling rigs, Foundation construction project; Operator training, Repair Services; and labour supply.

Internationalization: Tysim has exported whole rigs and tools to more than 46 countries. Tysim is now building up a global sales network in an orderly way and to further develop the international marketing channels and international partners in the same four strategic areas.

The group now has better understanding of the applications of the rotary drilling rigs in housing projects, factory building projects, ground improvement projects, construction of bridge, Construction of Power GRID, flyover infrastructure, rural housing, fortification of river banks etc..
