FROM ACCJ
“Starting with the first twelve years, from 1948 to 1960, the Chamber will add materials covering the decades of the 60s through the present over the coming months. It is hoped that this website’s content will continue to grow in years to come, as we look forward to the Chamber’s next sixty years,” says ACCJ president Allan Smith.

ACCJ Vice President Bill Bishop said that the ACCJ has been a positive contributor and participant in Japan. “I hope the History Pages website will help us tell this exciting story,” said Bishop. “Though our budget has been limited we have been able to select and scan documents from the Chamber’s earliest years thanks to a lot of dedicated labor. Our most ambitious goal in coming years is to digitize and save as much ACCJ archived material as possible and to make it available online for the first time, including contributions from our members.”
