Hillary Clinton                                                                                  2014.6.24

Hi, every one. This is my final post for my ESL Weekly Blog Assignment.

Today, I would like to talk about Hillary Rodham Clinton who is America politician.
She was 67th United States Secretary of State of Barack Obama Administration. She used to worked at the Republican Party until 1968, then, she went over to the Democratic Party. She got married with Bill Clinton who was the 42nd President of USA. It seems her life is favorable and satisfactory, but she had pain time through her life.



The reason I chose her for today's topic is I saw her in CNN yesterday. There was a TV show, which talk about politician, and yesterday was about Hillary Rodham Clinton. In that TV show, a chair woman pick up some topics which relate to politician, and they discuss in show. Also audience can participate to that discussion either, so they have opportunity to ask question to politician directly. It's incredible TV show, and
yesterday there were many discussion flew back and forth with audience and Hillary.




Hillary was born in 1947, between parents who were engaged restaurant. She had high level education from her parents. According to her, especially her mother was really severe at her, and she always said abuse to Hillary. But her mother didn't trying to be mean. She slander Hillary in order to make her mental and physical being strong.
When she was child, she had interested in sports and also at politics. She set up a goal to be politician in the future.



When she grow up, she went to Yale Law School, and met to Bill Clinton. Afterwards, they got married, and it seemed her life is going very satisfactory, and most women admired her happiness life. But, she had very pain time. Several years were over from they god married. One day, broadcast reported that Bill Clinton has an affair with very hot woman. They already had bodily relationship, and citizens was dissapointed with his behavior. He tentatively did press conference for apologize to his behavior, but social clamored that absolutely he and his wife will get divorced. But when Hillary also did press conference, she said, "I already forgived him. So, please stop making rumor that we will get divorced. I will support him as ever." Personally I admire and respect with her sppech, but I think she was really shocked and sad.



When she got old, chance flew to her. The time president, Bush resigned his job, and there was an election through America. Obama and Hillary was elected for leader of democratic party. So, Obama or Hillary, one of those two had chance to be president. First, it seemed Hillary got more support than Obama, but afterwards, situation had changed. Eventually Obama won the election, and Hillary became his supporter. Bun in 2010, she hurted her eyes, and she had been diagnosed from doctor, that there is a
fair that she will loss of her eyeslight. So, she resigned her job unavoidable.



But, in 2016, she has highly motivated to attend to new president election. So yesterday, she appeared to that TV show, and discussed with audience in order to make her image up. She said "I know there are over 1000 people who are fighting in Syria, and the situation is the worst. It makes me really upset. Because firstbal, I hate war, and I'm trying to make every countries avoid from war. And also those people who are fighting in battlefield are innocent. They haven't commited a crime, but somehow they have possibility to gone. It makes me really, really upset."



In 2016, I think Hillary won't win to election. Because she is already 70, and very old. Also, after Obama administration, the Republic Party will increase their power, and their leader will win the election.



Have a nice summer vacation :)

Have you ever heard word called "Omotenasi"? It's Japanese own word, but unfortunately, English doesn't have this word. Omotenashi is kind of service, but always it calls when people did perfect service to customer. Personally I like this word very much. Now, government is starting "Omotenasi Project" in order to prepare for 2020 TOKYO OLYMPIC.

In 2020 Tokyo Olympic, many sports player from other country will come to Japan. Also their supporter too. It means foreigner will gather in Tokyo, so government is trying to figure out "how can we make Tokyo for many foreigner?". Finally, they started "Omotenasi Project".

First, government changed traffic sign. Traffic sign is a sign which describe way or place. Most traffic sign are transcribed in a Roma-letter. Like this↓

国会正門前➡        煤野市街➡
Koxtukaiseimonmae Susunoshigai

Most foreigner (except some European) don't understand Rome-letter. And they are confusing where is that place when they come to Japan. So government changed most traffic sign to English letter to make foreigner understand it easily.

Now↓

Kokkaiseimonmae  Centre Susuno





Secondly, many hotels or lager land introduced worker who can speak English. Until now, many worker couldn't correspondence request of foreigner customer very well.
It will cause decrease foreigner customer, so recently, many land or hotel introduced those worker who can speak English. So as you can know, now, in the world, people who can speak English will achieve success.



Also hotel thought out good point for "Omotenashi project". You know Japanese don't have rule of religion. So luckily we can eat anything unless you have allergy. Personally, I don't care religion, but in India or those country have severe rules of religion. For example, Islam can't eat pig or caw, and can't drink beer. So at Japan hotel or food chain developed menu for Islam.



Those project or service is very good and awesome. World is going to global day by day. I thing the assignment of youth of Japanese is "How to make Japan be global?"
"How can we learn from America or those global countries?".



Now, Japanese is trying to achieving their goal for "2020 Tokyo Olympic".
