To All Regular & Professional/Journalist Associate Members:

March 24th is this month's Happy Hour!

It's a week earlier than usual, but with the same great value-for-money that has made the FCCJ Happy Hour for Journalists so popular with members and guests alike.

Members pay only 1,000 yen (1,500 yen for guests) for an hour of free-flow draft beer, house wine, gin tonic/vodka tonic and soft drink/juices. A variety of light snacks is included in the ticket price.

Sign your friend up for membership to receive a FCCJ dining voucher and a bottle of wine! Facility tours and FCCJ membership explanations will be available for those who are interested in joining the Club.

Orders taken beyond the hour will be charged to members, and guests can purchase coupons (valid for the same day) at the Front Desk to continue imbibing.

To All Regular Members:

There will be a regular meeting of the General Membership on Monday
March 15, at 6:30 p.m. The tentative agenda will be as follows:

1. Approval of the minutes of the December GMM
2. President's report
3. Treasurer's report, presentation of operational and capex budgets
4. Committee reports
5. Old business
6. New business

If you cannot attend the meeting please sign the statement below and
give it to another Regular Member to vote on your behalf. Make sure your
proxy is planning to attend and does not already hold more than two
proxy votes. No member may hold more than two proxy votes. If you send a
proxy please do so by fax, mail or hand delivery since a proxy has to be
a signed statement, according to our bylaws. Please don't send your
proxy to the President, as he may not vote except in the case of a tie
or a secret ballot.

Since we need a quorum of one-fifth of the regular membership for the
meeting to be valid, please let us know your attendance by phone, fax
(3211-3168), or email to kubo@fccj.or.jp

Monzurul Huq
President
