BF Delegate Visit North East Japan-First of all, visiting the Tsunami stricken area along

the Japanese east cost was really heart-breaking. But I have learned what our y’s men with YMCA had

done for the recovery. Many volunteer works from Y’s Men and YMCA

members and families – domestics as well as worldwide. I saw the True Brotherhood. I also

realized they are still facing many difficulties to recover their physical and mental health.
