I was named to be a councilor of Japan Physical Society (JPS) from September for two years term and asked to take care of foreign affairs. I asked Jie to arrange to meet a councilor of CPS who is responsible to foreign affairs. What I was surprised is that the HQ of CPS is located on the 9th floor in the same building we used for the Japan-China Seminar.
