2013 JICA Okinawa "Community-Embedded Cooperative Stores in Okinawa"
This document discusses the history and purpose of Kyodo-baiten, or community-owned cooperative stores, in Okinawa, Japan. It explains that Kyodo-baiten first emerged in the early 1900s in remote villages as a self-reliant way for communities to access goods, as they were previously dependent on foreign merchants. The first Kyodo-baiten, Oku Kyodoten established in 1906, grew successful by owning ships, managing taxes, and providing scholarships. It served as a model and the cooperative store system spread across Okinawa as a means for isolated villages to meet local needs.

Ten days after Asian tsunami in Jan 6, 2006, a group of 5 social workers and 1 teacher went down to Kao Lak village, Phuket, Tahiland to see what they can do to help the survivors. There they saw piles of coffins waiting to be buried in the temples adjacent to the resettlement camps where thousands of survivors rest in their tents or simple shelters. These scenes and stories told by survivors direct them to visit post disaster sites one after the other. On 2008, it was the Wenchuan Earthquake on May 12 that shocked the whole Chinese community. Then there was the Typhoon Morakat in Taiwan. Most recently the East Japan earthquake, tsunami and nuclear crisis shocked the world. Though our efforts are minimal, we hope it still makes things different.
Disaster social services are badly needed in all post disaster sites disregarding whether it happened in the poor or in the rich country. We are sorry to see that very few international organization go to Japan simply because it is considered developed country. We certainly need to respect different culture and cannot force upon other people to receive our assistance. However we are still very sad to see our Japanese friends keep everything to themselves including their pain and worries. Disaster social work is not an easy task. More sharing and training hopefully can equip our professions better when disaster strikes.

【Final】accountability in asia ~japan perspective~
The document discusses accountability in Japanese non-profit organizations. It describes The Nippon Foundation, a large non-profit established in 1962 that supports over 40,000 other non-profits. It outlines the history and laws around Japanese non-profits, noting a shift from traditional "public interest corporations" to newer NPOs beginning in the 1980s. While Japanese law now requires basic financial reporting from NPOs, the document argues accountability is still lacking regarding outcomes, evaluations, governance, and compliance. It presents challenges for The Nippon Foundation's CANPAN project to improve awareness and create new platforms to facilitate accountability and philanthropy in Japan's evolving "culture of donation".
