At the Closing of G8 Hokkaido Toyako Summit
|
| The G8 Hokkaido-Toyako Summit ended with the adoption of its Summit Leaders Declaration (hereafter “the Leaders Declaration”). It is noted that the Leaders Declaration pointed out the reduction of nuclear weapons and the verification of existing nuclear programs by the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), and that the abduction issue was specified in the leaders declaration for the first time. However, while the Leaders Declaration referred to the economic and financial crisis and the social instability expanding under globalization, and the starvation and poverty being caused by serious influence of the sharp rises in oil and food prices upon the most vulnerable people in the world, as well as to the issue of global warming which is in a critical situation, it did not produce a strong enough message to break through these issues and did not fully respond to the expectation of the working people and their families of the world. |

Passage of the Basic Bill on National Public Service Personnel System Reform
|
| Today on 6 June 2008, a bill on national public service personnel system reform was passed into law in the Diet in the name of “the Basic Law on National Public Service Personnel System Reform” (hereafter “the Basic Law”). Sixty years have passed since the end of World War II, and various Japanese systems have achieved or are achieving substantial changes, but it is in the public service personnel system that any drastic reforms have not yet been carried out. The enactment of “the Basic Law” after the ruling parties and the Democratic Party of Japan (DPJ) agreed to revise the original bill submitted earlier by the government is of great significance as a step for further drastic reforms hereafter. The political agreement on the revisions of the bill which was made on the basis of the idea that a politician-led democratic public service personnel system should be established will have far-reaching effects. |
