we are in this country, but we have very good relationship with Japan through our friend Yasuko

Shingai since 1958.           Next, she answered to Mayor's questions at courtesy visitting.

As medical doctors we were very impressed about the old people care-home in Gotemba ; about

the signs and bottoms on the street and halls for blind people, about the Japanese hygienic equipments.      We were very pleased about Shizuka Arakawa's Gold Medal, and F,Suguri, too.

Japan and Finland have about the same land-area, but Japan has 125 million inhabitants. Finland

has 5 million. So we feel us like a little sister and a little brother to Japan.
