He's running from Kumamoto for national office in the current election. Like Abe and other conservatives he wants to change the constitution and strength Japan militarily. However, the reasoning behind the position his party has taken is rather unique. Mr. Morita belongs to the Happiness Realization Party. This party is affiliated with a religion called "Happy Science." Their position in favor of a strong military stance is in keeping with advice that, according to the English side of the website of the party / movement, Margaret Thatcher gave the leader of the religion from the grave. "Merely 19 hours after her death, Master Ryuho Okawa, the founder and CEO of Happy Science, invited Mrs. Thatcher’s spirit to the General Headquarters’ prayer hall to talk about her thoughts from Heaven. . . " Ryuho Okawa: "We would like to receive your advice on the Japanese prime minister or us." Thatcher: "If you felt some sort of fear of invasion from them, you must attack, of course." "Them" refers to "North Korea and the red empire of China." http://eng.the-liberty.com/2013/4397/ 2013-07-09 17:32 JSTWhen Hello Kitty Met Pedobear: The Kumamon Craze 2013-07-06 17:23 JSTSoseki went to Britain after thanking friend for repayment - … 2013-07-06 23:53 JSTHere the team responsible for a new (well, December of 2012) photovoltaic plant in Koshi;http://www.juwi-shizenenergy.com/typo3temp/pics/4_b9ba26dd88.jpgThe location of is here:http://goo.gl/maps/WwOjcAnd here's the address of a company's web page about the project:http://www.juwi-shizenenergy.com/projects.html 2013-07-04 15:19 JSTHere's another video about Kumamoto-ben (Kumamoto dialect):大好き!熊本弁Part2 ~地域の宝・方言の魅力~ (this post) 2013-07-03 09:47 JSTI think this exhibition is really worth seeing. Foujita (or Fujita) led quite a life. He was friends with Picasso and other leading artists in Paris. During the war, he threw himself into the production of arts works intended to further the war effort. After the way, under heavy criticism for his cooperation with the war effort, he return to France where he became a French citizen.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsuguharu_Foujitahttp://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2013/07/03/national/kumamoto-shows-foujita-painting-of-unesco-fuji-site/#.UdNuQxac1K4Kumamoto shows Foujita painting of UNESCO Fuji site 2013-07-03 09:22 JSTThe Branding of Kumamon: The Bear That Stole Japan’s Heart 2013-07-02 23:09 JSTThis is a Japanese version of the following English post:http://groups.yahoo.com/group/kumamoto-i/message/12595熊本県と熊本市は、秋に行われる「水銀に関する水俣条約外交会議」で手伝う「語学ボランティア」の募集しています。まず、関連のリンクを紹介してから多少の補足説明をしたいと思います。http://www.pref.kumamoto.jp/site/suiginjoyaku-gaikoukaigi/volunteer-language.htmlこのページでは締切が7月1日になっていますが、ボラティアがまだ足りないので、今月の20日ごろまで延長されるそうです。今日、私自身がコーディネーターの方から受け取った募集要項や申し込み用紙のpdfを次のリンクで入手できます。http://www2.kumagaku.ac.jp/teacher/~masden/2013/130702_volunteer/20130702214755.pdfさて、補足説明として、次の点を強調したいと思います。*準備等の日程が合わなく諦めないでください。調整できるそうです。*英語の力に自信がなくとも、興味とやる気があれば、ぜひ申し込んでください。バックアップ体制がしっかりしていますので、言葉が通じないなどのような場合には、近くで待機しているプロが応援に来てくれます。*ボランティアは会議の全日程ではなく、自分にとって都合のいい日を事前にコーディネーターに伝え、その日だけボランティアをすることになります。*自分自身がボランティアできなくとも、ぜひこのメッセージを関心がありそうな友達とShareしてください。周知徹底の協力も重要なボランティアです。よろしくお願いします。 2013-07-02 22:09 JSTThis major international conference will be held in Kumamoto in October.
