Recommendations : | As the result of providing the training and opportunities to get in touch with JCI, almost all JCI sapporo members could change themselves positively. But those opportunites should be consectively held. As the result of giving the Sapporo citizens some flobal opportunities, almost all Sapporo citizens could become active citizens. But those opportunities also should be consectively held. The program of MDGs gave elementary school and junior high school kids the opportunity to learn MDGs and talk about MDGs. But those opportunities also should be consectively held. JCI senators, JCI sinior members who were familiar with JCI were invited to the seminor that JCI Sapporo took place and gave JCI Sapporo members the knowledges of JCI Academy, JCI award and so on. As the result, the increase of the newest JCI Sapporo members proved JCI Sapporo’s achievement. JCI Sapporo strongly promoted Nothing but nets campains and got the donations. But also those should be consectively promoted. The fundation of JCI Sapporo provided the opportunity to some NPO organizations to create active citizens. But this also should be verified. With experiences of JCI activities, among younger members(less than 3 years since getting a JCI Sapporo member) 5 of them became leaders and 27 of them became staffs. And 18 of them assigned JCI Japan(4 of them were staffs) Out of 1.92 millions peaople in Sapporo, less than 1000 could have some experiences to communicate with oversea delegates. So JCI Sapporo has to make more opportunities so that more Sapporo citizens can experience international activities. Among junior high school students who participated in MDGs programs, 98% of them didn’t know what MDGs was, 81% of them were not satisfied with their language abilities and 60% of them felt that they would like to go abroad. So JCI Sapporo has to make more opportunities so that more Sapporo citizens can experience international activities. This year was the first year for JCI Sapporo to promote Nothing but Nets campaign. And this promotion should be continued for getting the big support from Sapporo citizens. JCI Sapporo verified the activities of NPO organizations by their reports handed in. The fundation of JCI Sapporo will provide in the future also. Though the fundation of JCI Sapporo gave some NPO organizations to make their activites powerful and effective, researching how powerful effecitve they were was insufficient to conclude the result because of our research sysytem. So JCI Sapporo made some rule to verify the result of NPO organizations by their reports. Hosting JCI Academy gave JCI Sapporo a great start for another 60 years history. In 2000 JCI Sapporo hosted world congress and since then JCI Sapporo had not have any chances to host intenational activities. And also JCI Academy was the great opportunity not only for JCI Sapporo members but for Sapporo citizens to experience the mutual aids for the world peace. Ms. Harumi Takahashi, governer of Hokkaido Prefecture Hokkaido always expects that the members of JCI Sapporo will keep trying to contribute to our community, not only Hokkaido and also the city of Sapporo with their strong passions and convictive results so that our community gets good reputations from all around the world. Mr. Fumio Ueda, the mayer of the city of Sapporo Sapporo would like to appreciate the activities of JCI Sapporo that gives the Sapporo citizens to get some opportunities to feel something global and also keep a good and strong relationship with JCI Sapporo by the partnership treat and blue earth fundation. Ms. Yuko Miyajima It was really stimulative that I could have a great opportunity tocommunicate the delegate who will be the one of the global lleaders in the world. So I would like to thank JCI Sapporo very much for giving me such a wonderful opportunity. New Year metering, articled on Hokkaido Newspaper (issued 1,120,000 copies printed) on 2012/1/13.
