Welcome to the latest issue of Paul Arenson's ChocoPaulNews, the
newsletter of the TokyoProgressive website.
If you are a student of mine in certain classes, this newsletter
is being sent to you automatically. Other people get it by
signing up at http://tokyoprogressive.org/openingpage.html or by
requesting a copy. Please see the bottom of this newsletter if
you would like to stop getting it.
As many of you know, I was hospitalized in April, and I am still
tired because the O2 in by boood is only half of what it should be.
Please be more patient with me than usual.
--------------------------------------------------------
IN THIS ISSUE
New Link Sections, Hamaoka Nuclear Plant, East Timor at Jochi Daigaku,
U.S. Domination, Media Censorship, Middle East
These stories appear after the SPECIAL NOTES:
--------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1
----------------------------------------------------------
REQUEST TO ALL LABOR UNION MEMBERS--Labor Reporters needed
----------------------------------------------------------
We have too many things to do, but not enough time to do them all.
One that is very important is this. For the past 8 months we have
been reporting on the Japanese labor movement for the website
LABOURSTART. activity because NO-ONE ELSE VOLUNTEERED. However, we do
not always know what is happening, and that why we/Labourstart needs
your help.
If YOU are a member of a Japan-based union, please consider volunteering
to send PERIODIC announcements to their website. Most other countries
have people willing to send such reports, but most reports in Japan
come from the MAINSTREAM media. If we can get people reporting in
JAPANESE and/or ENGLISH, it will make Labourstart a much more useful
site for increasing solidarity between workers.
If you CAN'T volunteer to be a Labourstart correspondent, please
consider sending me your reports. That means workers in ANY sector.
Please! TokyoProgressive is a one-person operation, and we just can't
do everything.
