Statement
I am honored to have been nominated as a candidate for Director, General Affairs. I have been an active IEICE volunteer for nearly 30 years, including Director, Treasury from 2011 to 2013. I will diligently work with volunteers and staff to improve the values we bring to members, industry, academia, and government, if elected. While prioritization along with globalization is vitally important to strengthen IEICE, I think it is also necessary to keep up with long-tailed services and activities that other organizations can never offer. I will work with the Board of Directors, committees, and outside organizations to promote mutual understanding and boost the significance of IEICE, which will celebrate its centennial anniversary in 2017. Thank your for your support.
