Dr. Y.F. Chang — An Appreciation
11 January 2008
I remember with great affection the many meetings that I have held with Chairman Chang in Europe, in Taiwan and in Japan. All of these encounters have been memorable, each in their own way, but none more so than my visit to the Mitsubishi shipyard at Kobe in Japan in 1994, where I launched the Ever Result at the invitation of Dr. Chang.
The overall arrangements, the attention to detail, the precision of the actual launch ceremony, all remain vividly in my mind. Above all though, I remember the warmth of my reception by Dr. Chang together with his unfailing courtesy, a quality which is noticed by all who meet him. I was also most interested to hear of the long and mutually beneficial relationship between Mitsubishi, the builder of the Ever Result, and Dr. Chang. As I know from personal experience what a part loyalty plays in all his dealings.
I like also to think that the Ever Result is a lucky ship, as following the launch ceremony in October 1994, the ship was actually delivered to Evergreen on the day of the Kobe earthquake on January 17th 1995. As the vessel was therefore not actually docked at the time of the earthquake, it escaped the terrible damage that was inflicted on the city that day. When I subsequently visited the ship in late February 1996 at Thamesport in London, I was able to tell the captain that the ship must have been made under the protective umbrella of both Dr. Chang and myself.
I have now known Dr. Chang for close to 20 years and have been delighted to see the progress his company has made and the justified acclaim and honour which has been bestowed on him across the world, all of which is the product of a lifetime of hard work and dedication to the best interests of his customers, staff and shareholders. He has made a great contribution to his country and I hold him in the highest esteem.

令人激賞的張榮發博士
回想過往與張博士在歐洲、台灣及日本的無數次會晤,每次都有值得回味之處,但沒有一次是像在1994年時,我應張博士之邀,前往位於日本神戶的三菱重工造船廠,擔任「長果輪」(EVER ESULT)新船下水典禮的擲瓶貴賓,那樣地令人印象深刻。
張博士對全程的安排、細節的掌握,以及實際下水典禮時的準確性,仍然清晰地烙印在腦海裡。尤其是在張博士熱情的接待中,他始終如一、謙恭有禮的 態度,是所有有幸能夠遇見他的人都會注意到的特質。更讓我感興趣的是,「長果輪」承造商三菱重工造船廠和張博士之間長期合作及互惠關係,並讓我體會到「忠 誠」在他所有的事業中,扮演了關鍵角色。
我同時認為「長果輪」是一艘幸運之船,因為在1994年10月下水典禮後,「長果輪」於1995年1月17日神戶大地震發生當天交船;所以,當 大地震發生時,因它並未停靠船塢,而躲過了神戶大地震所造成的嚴重傷害。之後,我於1996年2月底,到倫敦泰晤士港造訪該船時,即告訴船長說︰「它一定 是在張博士及本人的保護傘下建造的。」
我認識張博士迄今已近二十年,對長榮集團能夠鴻圖大展並享譽全球備受矚目,我由衷地替他感到高興;凡此種種都是他畢生辛勤工作,致力為客戶、員工及股東們爭取最大利益的成果。張博士竭盡心力地對他的國家做了最偉大的貢獻,我謹在此致上最高的敬意。

Publisher’s Note
Evergreen Group Founder and Chairman Dr. Y.F. Chang started his enterprise in 1968 with a second-hand general cargo ship. In the more than 40 years that followed, Evergreen grew into a successful international conglomerate specializing in sea, air, and land transportation.
Dr. Chang believes that the meaning of life lies in devotion. To realize his philanthropic goals and to promote moral development, he formed the Chang Yung-Fa Foundation in 1985.
Dr. Y.F. Chang As I Know Him, compiled by the Foundation between 2007 and 2009, offers rare insights into the life of Dr. Chang through anecdotes provided by close friends in Taiwan and overseas, and senior Evergreen executives.
We would like to thank each and every contributor for taking time out of their busy lives to commit to paper their memories of times shared with Dr. Chang, and for locating photographs that capture treasured moments.
Due to space constraints, we were not able to publish all the articles we received, and we apologize wholeheartedly for any omission.
We hope that as you read this book, you will enjoy a sometimes enlightening, humorous and touching trip down memory lane as you learn more about what makes Dr. Chang the man he is.
