[SGI-ToMyFriends-Wagatomo] 28th March To My Friends & Daily Gosho + 28th March - 3rd April Words of the Week

* Here in Tokyo...every effort now is being made to conserve our energy sources, the Eastern Section of The Japanese National Railways, inclusive of Tokyo, has been able to cut its required electricty by 30%, up north more and more people are being long-term housed while others face the reality that it would be best to move out of the area into public housing in other areas of the country. Government measures are also hastily being implemented to give financial relief and to help people stand up again.
