Dear TSA members:
According to above statements, ASA was established and approved by ISA after the board of Directors meeting on April 6, but the above three points were destroyed by certain ASA member right after ASA was approved. Suzuki Hiroko and Isao Fujii were unilateral dismissed from original positions.
The above changes were unexpected and completely out of anticipation. I am indignant with the situation but I have no choice and have to inform the above facts. I am sorrow, feeling deep regret and great disappointment. Under these circumstances, I appreciate all the support of every TSA member. Thank you for putting trusts on me since the very beginning. Meanwhile, I will also try the best with my full ability Hiriko Suzuki |
