-- TO MY FRIENDS --
I'd like to express my utmost appreciation
to all of our noble fellow members
who have devoted themselves to achieving all our goals and targets
with such unyielding determination.*
We, the ever-youthful SGI, are absolutely victorious!
Now, let's continue together in our winning ways by taking on new challenges.
(*)As of this e-mail, in local elections held in Japan on April 24th, 2011,
candidates fielded by the New Komeito party, who were endorsed by the Soka Gakkai in Japan, are all set to win their seats in their constituencies, for a total of 1,263. This makes the New Komeito the party with the most number of candidates to have won seats in terms of the number of total seats won. The DPJ won 400+ seats, while the LDP, 700+. The majority of candidates ran as independents, with 4,000+ winning seats.

---- WORDS OF THE WEEK ----
Congratulations on the greatest of victories!
It is very certain that all the Buddhas and Buddhist gods
are praising this outstanding achievement we have just made.
This has made our new kosen-rufu advancement

be blessed with great good fortune and benefit
and may you shine with glory!
