  • Case-Based Surveillance of Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 in Maebashi City, Japan
    Jpn. J. Infect. Dis., 65, 132-137, 2012 Original Article Case-Based Surveillance of Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 in Maebashi City, Japan Satoshi Tsukui* Maebashi Public Health Center, Gunma 371-0014, Japan (Received March 24, 2011. Accepted December 14, 2011) SUMMARY: After national case-based surveillance for pandemic influenza A (H1N1) ceased on July 23, 2009, a daily case-based surveillance system was implemented in Maebashi City, Japan. All medical facilities in the city reported all patients who had positive rapid antigen tests for influenza A. When the epidemic exploded in late October, case-based surveillance for influenza-like illness (ILI) was im- plemented from November 3, 2009 until the end of the epidemic. A total of 7,781 influenza cases were reported between July 25 and November 2, 2009, with a cumulative incidence rate of 22.5 per 1,000 population. Nearly 70z of the patients were under 15 years old. Between November 3, 2009 and the end of March 2010, a total of 16,394 ILI cases were reported, with a cumulative incidence rate of 47.4 per 1,000 population. Of the ILI cases reported, 63z were in patients younger than 15 years old. Only one death with laboratory confirmation of the H1N1 2009 virus was reported during the epidemic. The age- specific reproduction number among children under 15 years of age was almost 1.40, whereas between children and adults (15 years of age and above) it was considerably less than 1.0. The reproduction num- ber derived from the next-generation matrix using data from September 30 to October 14 was estimated to be 1.48 (95z confidence interval, 1.41–1.56).

  • A Prospect of Disaster Education and Community Development in Thailand
    A Prospect of Disaster Education and Community Development in Thailand: Learning from Japan Nakhara: Journal of Environmental Design and Planning Volume 19, 2020 A Prospect of Disaster Education and Community Development in Thailand: Learning from Japan Waricha Wongphyat a* / Mari Tanaka b a Faculty of Architecture, Chulalongkorn University, Thailand [email protected] b Faculty of Education, Gunma Prefecture, Japan [email protected] * Corresponding author Received 2020-03-03; Revised 2020-09-30; Accepted 2020-11-10 ABSTRACT This paper aims to examine a prospect of disaster education and community development in Thailand focusing on a traditional waterfront community, named Hua Takhe. It explores the program and participation as well as meaning and implication of the Japanese cases through observations. Based on the analysis of questionnaire surveys, the strengths of the Hua Takhe community include solidarity, human, cultural, and educational resources. Its weaknesses are a limitation of disaster prevention-related resources, insufficient interaction between the old and the young generations, a lack of systematic disaster management, and low participation in drills. Collaboration with educational institutions, integrative and inclusive learning, and a better quality of life can be its opportunities; however, changing the usage of dwellings and an unbalanced development can be its threats. While the proposed workshop for children focuses on identifying the disaster prevention-related components and storytelling of Japanese and Thai wisdom, the workshop for multigenerational residents emphasizes identifying risks, discussing about the CBDRM, and participating in the community’s festival. Concentrating on community engagement comprises of sharing the survey results, group discussion, hands on experience in investigating the living environment and making a hazard map.

  • The Case of Weaving Districts in the Meiji Japan1 Tomok
    On the Historical Process of the Institutionalizing Technical Education: The Case of Weaving Districts in the Meiji Japan1 Tomoko Hashino2 <Abstract> This paper explores the process of the institutionalizing technical education in modern Japan. In particular, this research attempts to elucidate why people in local weaving districts needed such educational institutions and how it is related with the introduction of western technology. This process is found to be much different from the government-led introduction of modern industries through establishment of technical high schools and universities to nurture engineers. In the case of traditional Japanese weaving districts, it was trade associations that voluntarily and actively established institutes for training, which were later supported by prefectural governments and the Ministry of Agriculture and Commerce and finally institutionalized as public technical schools by the Ministry of Education. 1 The author is grateful Mataji Umemura and Hoshimi Uchida for fulfilling discussions in the early stages of this research. A previous version of this research benefited from a lot of comments of participants at the Kinki-Section of Socio-Economic Society, the national conference of Socio-Economic History Society and in a seminar at the Institute for Monetary and Economic Studies, Bank of Japan. She also appreciates the valuable comments and suggestions by Keijiro Otsuka in the process of revising this paper.
