The League for Soroban Education of Japan. Inc. Sends a Comfort Letter to WAAMA Regarding the COVID-19 Pandemic

    First of all, thank you very much for your continuous support to WAAMA’s causes.

    We would like to extend sincere condolences to the leaders of your Association regarding the COVID-19 pandemic spreading in your country.

    The spread of COVID-19 had a great impact on your Association’s popularization activities of abacus and mental arithmetic. As the abacus education group in your neighboring country, relevant personnel including Chairman Hiroshi Hirayama and Hirakami Kazutaka, Vice President of WAAMA and Former President of the League for Soroban Education of Japan, feel very sad about this.

    Now, Japan also reports confirmed cases in various regions, bringing great uncertainty to people’s daily life and the economy. In the face of this challenge, our League works with your Association to fight against the virus, and continues to promote the development of the abacus cause while ensuring adequate protection.

    We sincerely wish that your country win the fight against COVID-19 at an early date, and the activities of WAAMA resume as soon as possible.

    Finally, wish all leaders of your Association and branches led by Chairwoman Liu Jianhua safe and healthy.

    Our League hereby extends deep sympathy in this letter.
