Not bad. As far as I can see, you missed one - #3 Mamoru Kodama is the founder and Chairman of the AJNPA(?) and Izumiya is the current President of Shinkokai.

Hey Tony, any word on whether Kato-san is retiring as Pres of ZNA Japan? That was the last rumor I heard when there in October!?

His overall health has been on the decline. The last time we saw him he was with his wife, who must be 30 years younger, and Hosokai mentioned that it is his goal to keep up with her. I think if it were up to Mr. Kato-San he would never step down. You can see his love for Koi, I think it really depends on his health.
