Personal
Personal lnterview With the
Prime Minister of Japan
DECENTLY I HAVE
been privileged to
~
have a number of personal meetings
with Heads of State in severa! countries around the
world.
One of our students at the Texas campus of Am–
bassador College asked: "Mr. Armstrong, when you
meet Presidents or Prime Ministers, do you meet ... as
part of a group, getting merely a quick handshake, or
do you have a prívate audience where you can sit down
and really talk with them? And what do you talk about?
Would you please tell us ?"
I had to smile. These meetings have all been prívate
audiences, arranged sorne time in advance, affording personal
and private discussion on a high level.
I am writing at 41,000 feet altitude, flying back
to
Pasa–
dena, from our Texas Campus.
I think my PLAIN TRUTH readers would be interested in
the answer. So for this month's
Personal
talk with you, I will
tell you about my very recent meeting with Eisaku Sato, the
Prime Minister of Japan. Japan has made a phenomenal econ–
omic and industrial recovery since the end of World War II.
Today Japan is
second
in the free world only to the United
States in gross national product. Its economy now is greater
than that of Britain, West Germany, France or Italy. So this
interview was of very great importance, for Prime Minister
Sato
is
Chief Executive of the government over this upsurging
nation of more than 100 million people.
I talked with him in his executive prívate office in Tokyo.
Accompanying me were Dr. Nobumoto Ohama, internationally
known educator and former President of Waseda University,
Mr. Stanley
R.
Rader, general counsel and financial adviser of
Ambassador College, and Osamu Gotoh, Chairman of the
Department of Asian Studies at Ambassador College.
Also present with the Prime Minister were Hideki Masaki,
