Yukiko is mayer of the city of South Africa, 40 years old.


     The topic of this disucussion was “Which city decide to our town's sister city”. In the discussion, there were some important points, firstly, How do the city change through making a relation as a sister city. It is very important point when the city people decide a sister city. Secondly, what kind of purpose does each mayer have when own city and our city make a sister's relationship. It is also important thing. Finally, How can they coincide with each other's interests. If it is not completed, sister's relatioship never come true.

     On the discussion, we decided that Taiwan is the best city as a sister city. Because French mayer was a little unreliable and maybe many people couldn't take interet in French idea or vision. And also Taiwan has many problem, for example, language problem that is how to communicate with each other.

     I thought that this group did a good disucussion!! Because there were many discuss point, but they could answer citizen's questions and each panelor have a strong idea. From this things, panel discussion could have one strong pole. It is good point and effective point when we do discussion.

For example, to hold pre-event to let many people know about main event, to put special products on pre-event or to appeal the pre-event and main event for a lot of people by using TV program. I thought each panelor had unique opinion, but there were few reasons why they want to do so. From these things, I thought they should consider what is our aim before they do discussion. I think it is important thing. I must practical use these thing for my next discussion!!!

Panel Discussion No.7

   Seventh panel discussion member was Iku, Mai, Taiga, Riho and Chiaki.

   Iku was 40 years old, work on the old library for 22 years.
  
   Mai was moderator.

   Taiga was 45 years old, work on high school as a teacher of history.

   Riho was a third piriod college student.

   Chiaki was 31 years old, work as programer

   The topic of their town meeting was that making a new library on the city to let the people have interest for books. In this discussion, there were many opinions for the topic. Specifically, Taiga want to let the people have interest and he always worry about the people nowadays are not interesting for books. And Riho said she want to read many books to complete her graduation thesis. However, their town library is far from the city, so she want to make a new library on the city. Iku and Chiaki want to activate old library more useful or comfortable.

   I thought the important point of this discussion was that what is merit or demerit through making a new library. When we make some buildings or other things by limited budgets, we should think how we can do to make some bulidings or other things, but paneler often said present situation or own appetite, so I thought they should propose more concrete opinion. If they do so, I will able to think a variety of opinions as a audience!!

   Finally, their speech speed and loudness of speech was good.

Panel Discussion No.5

Fifth panel discussion member was Sakiko, Mariko, Yosaku, Atushi and Chihiro.

Sakiko is moderator.

Mariko is 42, trying to become a mayor.

Yosaku is 42, elementary school teacher, have two children, hobby is fishing.

Atushi is 46, running mayor, hobby is to play golf.

Chihiro is 44, secretary of Atushi, hobby is shopping.

Their town is selecting a new mayor of the town, Both Mariko and Atushi talked about their policy to become their town mayor. For example, Mariko proposed her policies, to set  more outdoor lump and increase refuse place forchildren, that is to say, her policies is about safety of town. On the other hand, Atushi proposed that to raise tax and to hold food. It is to flourish our town and improve town economy. So their topic is election of our mayor.

It was very difficult to find important discussion point because there were many weak opinions. I thought that their discussion had only few opinions, so I also thought what is consensus!! If they want to make  a good panel discussion, they should prepare a lot of opinions and each opinion should be debatable things.

Finally, the most important things about their discussion was that their preparation was not enough to make a good panel discussion. I think preparation is the most important things when the people make a discussion.

Panel Discussion No.3

Today's panel discussion member is Taiga, Iku, Haruka, Mai, Riho and Chiaki.

Their town is looking out on a serious problem that how to dispose a lot of garbage, not only household garbages but also industrial wastes, and where should they build a waste disposal place. However, they must ask permission for urban residents and suburb residents to build a waste disposal place. From these things, their topic is how to dispose a huge garbages and where should they build a waste disposal place!!!

Taiga is sixty, she is from Russia, runs a jewelry shop,

Iku is forty-two, he is from China, have a big factly.

Haruka is thirty-five, she is from Japan, have a husband and one daughter and one son,

Mai is fifty-five, she is professor of university,

Riho is sixty-eight, she is farmer, like corns very much.

Chiaki is from Canada, she is college student.

Important point of this panel discussion was that what are there any solutions to persuade both urban and suburb residents and what kind of advantages and disadvantages does this project have. Before we think about solution, we should take care of reasons why does our town's garbage increase. Panel member answered a variety of reasons, but I felt all of them is vague answer and I couldn't understand why does our town's garbage increase. So they should prepare a lot of deep ideas, and they should think about background too. When I listen their discussion, I felt each member's opinion have no consitency. I understood each opinoin have no relation. However, it must be false. From these things, each member should make clear their position and opinion.

Finally, I think the most important things in panel discussion is that how the moderator manage the discussion. So if their moderator have a good job, their discussion will be more meaningful discussion!!!

Panel Discussion No.1

First group member was Yosaku, mariko, sakiko, chihiro and atushi.

Their shops are in an arcaded street. However, a big shopping mall was built near the arcade. From this case, their shop's finance get more and more difficult because many people are go to shopping to the big shopping mall but to their arcaded street. So their topic is how to take back many customers to their arcaded street.

Yosaku is fifty-four and he is from Korea, marrid person, have three children, fishing is his hobby, a high school graduate, he runs a fruit and vegitable shop.

Mariko is thirty-seven and she is from Japan, married person, have no child, watching TV is her hobby, a junior high school graduate, she runs a clothes shop.

Sakiko is forty-five and she is from Japan, once experience a divorce, playing Kendo is her hobby, a high school graduate, she runs a sake shop.

Chihiro is twenty-eight and she is from Japan, unmarried person, flower arrangement is her hobby, a vocational school graduate, she runs a shop that sells cheap sweets.

Atushi is sixty-three and he is from Taiwan, unmarried person, combination party is his hobby, he runs a noodle shop.

Important points of this panel discussion was that what are there any solutions to take back a lot of customers and  why is their arcade's finance going down. This group member proposed a variety of solutions, but I think all of them was too difficult to be realized. Their arcade is bad finance. On the other hand, they say some solution which cannot be realized on their finance. For example, hold a summer festival, make a original character, distribute a gift card and make a point card. I felt there was a contradiction!! I think they should consult a solution of bad finance firstly. Although their opinion have no consistency, I felt their enthusiasm for taking back a customer. I think it is important things when the people say own opinions.

Finally, if they make a effective panel discussion, they should speak loudly. If the listener cannot follow what panelist says, the listener lose interest for the panel discussion!!

Last Presentation!!!!!!!!!

I talked about job opportunities between men and women. I thought contents of my presentaion was too easy and I could tell only few things. It is bad things because this presentation was third. It means that my presentation skill must develop as compared with before presentations. I have to feel apologetic for my presentation!!

I heard five people's presentaion, so I look back on their presentations.

Misato was talking about technology. Her grandfather always criticize about technology because her grandfather think it has some harm for people. However, misato think that it has many advantages, for example, we can contact with all of the world peope by using Internet. I agree with this idea. I think the technology becomes more better, we can spend a convinience life. In the end, she said we shouldn't depend on any machines but we have to use head one by one.

Manami was talking about woman places. In her presentation, there was a critical idea. It was that the child who is a double-career household often becomes bad child. In other words, they often retire their school by drug, tobacco or other negative problems. I think it is not true and she also think it is not true. Her idea is that women should select jobs on free. I agree with this idea!!

Yukiko was talking about fashion on TPO. She found the people who wore uncommon costume on coming-of age ceremony.
Kyoka was talking about jobs. She thought that it is necessary for every people to enjoy working and payment is also necessary when we choose jobs. Almost of people often think I am happy if I have enough money, but kyoka doesn't think so.

Miyabi was talking about war. What does war mean? It is big problem. She think if war cause and defend own country, it is not good for peace. I was impressed by her words. She said that giving up is necessary when war cause. If you want true peace, it is necessary not to occur any war.
