I attended the 62nd National Correctional Exhibition held at the Science Museum in Tokyo. Through the exhibition and sale of products made in correctional facilities, it was a valuable opportunity to learn about initiatives that support people as they make a fresh start in society.

It was a day that once again made me keenly aware of the efforts of those striving to return as members of the community, and of the importance of the support that stands alongside them.

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to everyone involved.
