"It is one of the duties of adults
to give chances to younger people."

This was something I heard from Masao Kunihiro, currently a distinguished visiting professor of the University of Edinburgh. In early 1997, I had an oppotunity to attend a welcome party for several Australian high school students which was held at the Australian embassy to Tokyo. I thought that it would be a good idea to take several Japanese high school students rather than going by myself.
Prof. Kunihiro has given me many chances to meet world leaders, including Nobel Prize winners. Those meetings have become treasures in my mind. Since it is impossible to repay the Professor for
these valuable opportunities, I would like instead to give chances to younger people.
