Hi,
congratulation for this award you fully deserve as you make a really great job in OSGeo Japan chapter, promoting OSGeo and Open Source software in general. It is really impressive and huge work from my point of view.

I'm that this award will encourage you to continue on your way. I hope that the mola mola will continue  to be protected against fishing :)

Long life to OSGeo Japan !
