TRAINING REPORT : Visit to Tokyo Metropolitan Sports Center for the Disabled
Oct 7, 2007:
Visit to Tokyo Metropolitan Sports Center for the Disabled
(unofficial visit)
One week has passed since the training program started on Monday Oct. 1.
Although today's visit was unofficial and not obligatory, all participants decided to visit the Tokyo Metropolitan Sports Center for the Disabled. Mr. Ueno, chairperson of Planning Committee and his friend Mr. Kanoya accompanied them all day.
As it was Saturday, the center was full of people and there was a lively atmosphere. All participants made their own user's card and with this card they can come back to use this center at anytime for free of charge. The participants observed the center's facilities and then tried some exercising equipments and played table tennis etc.

Dear Jicafriends!
I am very happy to receive that every day the kind people of Japan have progresses in the service to the people with disabilities.
as I saw Japan and its people, Japan is the most facilitated country for PWDs which is encouraging for others. I hope that during last three years there will be some more improvements for the people with disabilities in the lovely country of Japan.
we request the Japanese government to continue the series of these trainings for foreign coutries to let them know how to provide services to the PWDs and how to keep them happy and how to make upportunity for them to participate in the daily life without any problem.
thanks
