I think the plan you are talking about is either of the following.
https://www.genkialawai.org/
This one is a plan to clean the Ala Wai Canal by introducing balloons (Genki Balls ）) mixed with bacteria that promote the breakdown of sludge.
The goal is to make the canal accessible for fishing and swimming by 2026. I think I saw some news that the water quality on the east side of the canal is improving, but I am not sure.

https://www.bluealawaicanal.org/
This is a more aggressive plan, which is to excavate around the current Monsarrat Street to connect the canal to the ocean and use sluice and tidal channels to clean up Ala Wai.
It is a bold plan, but what are the chances of it being realized ・ ・ ・

The Ala Wai Canal occupies a large area in the middle of Honolulu.
For example, if the Ala Wai Canal is cleaned up and made available for swimming and playing, it would create a new activity as the back side of Waikiki. However, I wonder if it will take a long time to realize it when I ride my bicycle by the Ala Wai Canal.

Also, when I saw the bluehawaiicanal commercial, I thought it looked interesting, but when I looked at the website, it depicted large buildings on both banks of the canal built along Monsarrat, which made me think ？ that there is a development in the end and I had some delicate feelings. ・ ・ ・
Also, I wonder about the feasibility of connecting the Ala Wai Canal and Waikiki Beach, and what will happen to the water quality near Ala Moana ？ where the Ala Wai water will flow out.

Ala Wai Canal, I think the water quality is getting better than it was 12 years ago, but

I still think it is impossible to improve the water quality. I know that there is a project to clean up the canal,
but when I asked the person in charge, he said that the goal is to improve the water quality first.

It may take decades to complete the project, but there is a possibility that
in the near future, people will be able to swim in the Ala Wai Canal.

Waikiki is dry now because of the Ala Wai Canal. If not for the Ala Wai Canal
, Waikiki would still be a marsh.

Why ？

It affects those who work for Nissan, but how does it affect consumers ？
Nissan's North American headquarters is in Nashville, TN, though.

There is a Nissan Dealer, but that's a licensing agreement. So,
Nissan does not operate it directly.

If you can buy Nissan cars at low price, it is good for consumers ？

What kind of business crisis ？ do you understand ？ ？
because it is reported in the press. I think it would be better if people who don't know anything about Nissan don't say too much about it

I am a Nissan user.

When the merger with Honda was discussed, I innocently thought that I could get my Nissan cars serviced at the Honda dealership downtown near my work ？ but even if the merger happens, it will be a long time from now.
I'd rather not be able to get service at the local dealership if something happens to Nissan ？. But I'm sure it won't be that soon, and by then it will be time to buy a new car of my own, so I think I'm worrying too much.

#3 Mr. Koji

The merger talks with Honda have already broken down.

The reasons for the breakdown of this business integration talks are

✅ Nissan's deteriorating financial situation （ 80 billion yen deficit ）
✅ Nissan's executive compensation ・ The unusually high number of executives
✅ Differences in policy between Nissan, which seeks equal integration, and Honda, which is cautious
✅ government （ METI ） involvement and the auto industry

and so on.

Nissan's management is less efficient than Honda and Toyota, and management reform is required.

Thanks for the details. I thought I saw some news about the merger being revisited in the last month or so, but I checked and Honda is saying it's a story that won't happen for a while.
I will keep an eye on how much Nissan's slump in Japan will affect Nissan and dealers in the US.

I was so embarrassed to reply because the person who smoked in the U.S. now has a smelly mouth and a harsh body odor ． right after smoking, ． and the person in question has no idea about it and asks me if I'm dirty ？.
Young girls care about their appearance and body odor, and I can still forgive them if it hasn't built up in their system and they are cleansed, but I wonder what the future holds. It was so fake and funny that there were so many expat smokers and we had meetings with frequent cigarette breaks.

It's hard to tell your boss at work, even though the smell is harassment enough.
Everyone doesn't like it, but no one can say anything, so it goes unnoticed for a long time ・ ・ ・
I wish someone who can't read the air or someone above that boss would give an anonymous warning
Really, it's hard to say when you are the superior person in your position

The only way is to consult with HR. If it's a decent company, they will take care of it, but I think it's difficult for Japanese-Americans to do so.

If you get a diagnosis that you are sensitive to the smell of cigarettes and slightly allergic to them ？ It's not just cigarettes, but allergies can make the tip of your nose tingle and make you feel bad. Also, having a itchy feeling around my nose was a symptom.

In my case, Primary's doctor put it in writing. I was feeling sick and couldn't stop sneezing because of the smell of perfume, not cigarettes, and when I made an appointment, he said it must be the perfume. I only had that happen at work and I left early to see him when I was sneezing so bad. And many people who wear too much perfume are getting stronger by the day because their own nose is numb. I sent a letter to HR and asked them to change my seat. They told me that they can't pay attention to the person who is the source of the fragrance. I was told it's because I'm the only one who developed allergies. He said it's not enough for someone to say it smells bad. I and another coworker who was concerned about the smell have already quit though.

Dear Topi
Do you have a family doctor for the person having surgery ？
If ， you want the hospital you listed and
your current family doctor is at another hospital, I think you will need a referral letter
or something.
My husband had surgery for the same situation.
He had urinary problems for a while after the surgery, but
he will be back to near normal in a while.

I think it would be a good idea to have a second opinion
as well as a thorough consultation before making a decision.
Please take care of yourself.

I had my pharyngeal cancer treatment done in Queens. There is also a cancer center in Queens.
Depending on the nationality of your family, if you are a Japanese citizen, it is much cheaper to be treated in Japan.
I was charged $250,000 for 7 weeks of radiation and anti-cancer treatment, not surgical.
I was told that I would have monthly checkups for a year after treatment, but I return to Japan every two months for checkups at the Cancer Institute in Japan.
I pray that the best way will be found.

If you are using a home rice milling machine, you can always make rice bran, so I think it would be a good idea to post

Recently, we have received a notice from the consulate saying that even residents in the US can get a my number card.
FCI also has a detailed explanation by Ambassador Mori in NY.

However, only those who have had a resident card in Japan since 2015 can obtain one.
In other words, if you do not have your own number, the U.S. consulate cannot issue you a my number card.

[Advantages]
・ No need to have documents such as a copy of family register mailed from Japan
・ Can check the schedule of pension benefits on the web
・ Can obtain various documents at convenience stores when you temporarily return to Japan

I don't feel any particular disadvantage.

I intend to apply for a my number card in the near future.

You are Consul General Mori, not Ambassador in NY.

I have lived in NY and have been to several parties at the NY Ambassador's residence
For some reason, you call the NY Consul General an ambassador.
*I understand that NY is not the capital city, so he is not an ambassador.

However, the official name is the official residence of the NY Ambassador, not the official residence of the NY Consul General.
Announcer Kushita also introduced the name "Ambassador" in FCI. ？
Only in NY, it is a common sense to add "Ambassador" in honorific title for all generations.

LALALA, I saw that too, but you did say ambassador.

I just checked and it seems that the consul at the NY Consulate General is also called an ambassador.

The ambassador in DC is called an ambassador plenipotentiary, which means an ambassador in charge of a consulate in the U.S.
The consul at the NY consulate is also called an ambassador, I think.

I think it is called NY ambassador's residence.

Indeed, New York City was once the capital of the U.S.
and it is still there today.

Dear kiki
Thanks again for your advice.

I bought a bag full of foam earplugs at Target, but they came right off and didn't work for me. I'm buying noise cancelling headphones today, but I can't sleep with them on, so I'm going to Target to check out Kiki's silicone type.

Mr. Tajima
Thank you for the information. It is really nice to receive your comments.

I was out of town and could not listen to the radio program. My apologies. Once I go out, I hate to go back to my room with all the noise and bad smells, so I end up making detours that I don't have to make.

I then spoke with the HOA again. I had a chance to talk to my neighbors on the same floor, and I told them that they also get the strong smell of marijuana, and that I use candles to deodorize, etc. The HOA said, "Actually, when he smokes, the smell comes up to me," for the first time this time. But "I'll talk to him when I get a chance" and that was it. As for the noise, he said, "I can't tell you because it is a matter concerning my personal life. I can't even tell him not to use the washing machine late at night and early in the morning. I don't think the sound of the washing machine can be heard to the floor below." "Because it's a ceramic tile floor that's probably worn out soundproofing sheets from about 40 years ago ？" "And who knows if they're used in the bedrooms as well. He said, "I've lived here for 20 years and this is the first time I've had a complaint." The HOA said, "There are people who complain and people who don't. I told him, "There are people who can say it and people who can't." And that was the end of the discussion.
Yesterday I woke up to the smell of cigarettes and sometimes marijuana the entire time I was home, and at about 11:40 pm I woke up to upstairs footstep noise and furniture dragging.

I called a lawyer for a free phone consultation. I will try to follow their advice.

I hope that this issue will be more widely known through the radio call-in, and that it will reach people who have the same problem and are suffering alone. I have had many people read and comment on my problems here, and they have given me strength. The upper floor is already roaring more bass than usual at this hour, and there is a roaring sound, vibration and impact low noise coming this way. Will it continue to make noise until Monday since it is a holiday weekend?

Thank you.
