    Citizenship Report 2014 - 2015 Creating a real impact for a better tomorrow, with the power of ICT and the mind of citizenship The future is ahead of us and Japan is moving toward it with strong footsteps. With Tokyo being selected to host the Olympics in 2020, the Japanese society sees the lights breaking through the clouds, starting to illuminate the future. Japan is still facing a number of pressing challenges, such as the trend toward becoming a highly aged society, a shrinking working age population, declining job opportunities, and contracting regional economies. In addressing these social issues, information and communications technology or ICT, has an indispensable role to play, as specifically noted in the Japanese government’s “Declaration to be the World’s Most Advanced IT Nation”. As a leading company of ICT, Microsoft Japan is contributing to finding solutions to these challenges and driving new societal movements especially in the areas of “cloud” and “mobile” technologies. Microsoft’s new mission is to “empower all individuals and organizations on the planet to achieve more.” By connecting ICT with people, ICT with Japan, and ICT with the future, we are determined to serve various communities. We believe this is the natural role of Microsoft Japan—a company that has taken root in Japan and has been growing together with Japanese society. 2 Citizenship Report 2014-2015 Contents 4 Leadership Dialogue What actions are local governments and businesses expected to take to enhance the vibrancy of local communities? —Toward progress in the “regional vitalization” initiative 8 Local Revitalization 10 Work Style New Directions 13 Small Businesses and Startups 14 Education Becoming a “productivity and platform” company 18 Information Security In February 2014, Satya Nadella was appointed as the 20 Contribution to Local Society third CEO of Microsoft Corporation.

  • 2015 Hawaii Sister-State Annual Report
    State of Hawaii’s Sister-States Business Development & Support Division Department of Business, Economic Development & Tourism December 2017 A Report to the Legislature of the State of Hawaii as Required by Act 150, SLH 2006 2017 HAWAII’S SISTER-STATES REPORT HAWAII’S SISTER-STATE PROGRAM The Department of Business, Economic Development and Tourism (DBEDT) has established close working relationships with foreign governments and non-governmental organizations, federal agencies and national organizations. These relationships serve to raise Hawaii’s profile internationally, attract dynamic cooperative programs and stimulate Hawaii’s economy. Many of these projects fall under DBEDT’s Sister-State program. In 1993, DBEDT recognized in a report that in establishing sister relationships, economic benefit should be co-equal to the “historic purposes of friendship, cultural ties, and goodwill.” Consequently, any Sister-State relationship must provide for clear economic benefits. Hawaii’s Sister-State Policy was based on the following criteria: • Strong evidence of interest by the potential Sister-State. • Clear prospects for mutual economic advantage. • Substantial grassroots support for the relationship. • A strong record of activities. • Potential for expanded cultural, educational and government exchanges. The report went on to state that: • Sister-State relationships are partnerships between governments, but require active and ongoing participation by the private sector to sustain the relationship. • Because the State’s capacity to manage Sister-State relationships is finite, a means of terminating moribund or defunct relationships should be provided. SISTER-STATES PROCESS The following is the process for establishing a Sister-State relationship: • A detailed application form will be provided after initial consultation with DBEDT regarding a proposed relationship.

  • Some Funny Niihama Dialect
    What’s New? Niihama City No.271 March 2018 Published by SGG Niiham ３ Sojourn Andika Agung Wijaya It’s been 3 years since I came to this little town. Thinking back now, these years flew in no time. I remembered the first day here seeing Sakura petals, falling elegantly to the ground, making a beautiful scene of sea of Sakura. While breathing in the fresh air of a new beginning, I stepped my feet to the unknown. The year before, I was studying Japanese at Shinjuku, Tokyo. I was very lucky to make friends with many international students who came from many countries— Malaysia, Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, Mongolia, Gabon, Madagascar, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Laos, Iran, Uganda, Cameroon, Guinea, Kenya. These people opened my mind to realize how big this world we live in. Many culture with many ways of life. Nevertheless, we respect each other differences, and relying on just a simple gesture of smile we can be friends. Never in my wildest dream did I think that after I graduate from the language school I must go to Niihama. It was shocking for me at first to be sent to a middle of nowhere. The first thing I learnt about the place is no other than its delicious mikan (tangerine). I shook in excitement because after a whole year living with international students I will finally live together with the Japanese, or so I thought. Entering Japanese society, I realized that it is different from what I have imagined. The culture shock comes after about 2 years living in Japan.
