(1) Title of manager: In the courses, each manager is called differently such as informant, helper or class leader.

(2) Chairs in the Civic Plaza Japanese room: They were requested to be increased due to aging and greater use of chair in life.

(3) Chiba prefecture facility reservation system: It was requested that input items at application be reduced or identical items be omitted.

(4) Procedures for newsletter releases to be reduced: Requests will be informed to relevant units by using email and posting them on the official AIRA website, and we will consider them in the future.
