Mr. & Mrs. Miyazaki, November 2010, pictured with US Congressman Tom Petri and Japanese Ambassador to the United States Ichiro Fujisaki at Orion Energy Systems, Manitowoc

'Mr. Miyazaki is one of the most impressive Japanese I've ever met. Outspoken and assertive, devoted and caring, he has always been leadership oriented - a rare and precious commodity in consensus seeking Japan. (Having served) as General Manager, President and CEO of NHK International Corporation ... and JETRO Senior Trade Advisor to Wisconsin, his contribution is not limitied to business, however. Far from it. A man truly devoted to Wisconsin, he became the de facto ambassador of Japanese goodwill and friendship to this state.'

--Ambassador Mitsuyoshi Nishimura,
Consul General at Chicago, March 12, 1996
