This will be the last issue by the JCU this year.
Thank you very much for supporting the JCU this year. In 2019, we will continue making efforts to be a bridge between Japan, the United States, and the Asia-Pacific Region. Thank you for your continued support and cooperation.
2018 was a major breakthrough for the JCU and its conservative movement in Japan, the United States and the Asia-Pacific Region.
We had meetings with conservative leaders in several country, starting with JCU Chairman Jay Aeba meeting with President Trump and Vice President Pence at CPAC 2018. I believe that it contributed to deepening solidarity in the U.S.-Pacific Region’s conservative movement. In addition, we have strengthened the JCU’s Network Partners and held town hall meetings throughout the country. J-CPAC 2018 was held in November and welcomed participants from Korea, India, and numerous other countries. Thanks to you, it was a gorgeous conference and the turnout was even larger than the previous year.
Though this is my last letter, I wish you all the best in 2019.
