They want to prevent that elderly people die alone with the badget. However, the badget is not enough to share with both of them.

what the outcome was
We construct a nursing home and eploy home helpers with the badget.

Chihiro(63): the chief of our village
Sakiko(27): a member of S.P.C.A.

important points of the discussion as I see it
The problem of water shortage happened two years ago because of little rain, so they are planning to construct a dam. The dam is effective to save water and protect our lives from flooding. However if we do so, we lose some spas and it causes ecological damage.br>
what the outcome was
We will construct a water-strage dam.

my personal opinion
It is impossible to keep the present situation of animals when we construct a dam. However we also protect our lives. We cannot live without water, and government would support people who have to move financially. That's why, I agree with constructing a dam.

how effective the discussion was
Each panelist commented their opinions as their position. Using some figures is good way for us to understand the situation of our town.

how it could have been better
I could not understand the situation of this town, so I want them to explain the background more clearly.

important points of the discussion as I see it
In this city the number of homeless people are increasing uniquely. However, there are not enough employment offers.

what the outcome was
They build temporaly house for homeless people and reduce their aids.

my personal opinion
When homeless people give their house, they would stop finding their job, so I think it is better to support their job.

how effective the discussion was
The audiences joined the discussion because the topic was difficult.

how it could have been better
This topic was too difficult and the important panel member didn't have enough preparation, I thought. She should have take serious effort, if not, it makes the discussion more hardly.

Chihiro(35): the president of the department store
Sakiko(17): a high school student

important points of the discussion as I see it
Our town had dameged only Yosaku's temple by an earthquacke. However the temple has many historical significance and visiters.

what the outcome was
Yosaku didn't agree with broking down his temple and built a department store, and Chihiro gave up her plan. That's why we leave Yosaku's temple.

my personal opinion
The temple has historical significance, if we broke it, we never recover the precious property. In the other hand, a department store bring finacial benefit in our city. I think we should not weigh the each value. So I agree with leave Yosaku's temple.

how effective the discussion was
All of the members state their own opinion and ask some questions activery, and the moderator did her job well.

how it could have been better
Their typical establishment was poor I think. They should decide the topic we will discuss more carefully.

How we use our budget?

introduction of panel members and their intitialposition
Riho: a university student
Taiga(45): a history teacher in a high school
Iku(42):a worker in the old library
Chiaki:a programer

important points of the discussion as I see it
Our budget is 100 million yen, so it is not enough to built the new library. The old library has been buit 50 years and we need to repair it.

what the outcome was
There is an unused facility in the city, so we share the budget to use the facility to constract new libraly and improve the old one.

my personal opinion
I didn't know how often the buses run between the city and the old library. If the number of the bus was not so less, it doesn't seem worthwhile to increase it. Additionaly, I couldn't understand why they wouldn't break downthe old library. I think it is better to move the old one to the unused facility and prepare the book delivery system with the local school.

how effective the discussion was
They had more background as compared with the last time.

how it could have been better
Once again, the moderater had her own opinion, however, she shouldn't have her own opinion. And there is not enough basic information.

important points of the discussion as I see it
The budget we can use is not so much, so we should use it in the most effective way for our town.

what the outcome was
It is important to get some benefit after useing the budget, that's why we decided to use it to improve transportation.

my personal opinion
I don't care even if we couldn't get money from the project. I think it is good idea that we improve the establishments for children or elderly peoople because it can attracts some people who live in other city.

how effective the discussion was
Each panel members have strong reasons for their own opinion.

how it could have been better
There were too much decision branches, so they should make them more narrow. Moreover, the moderater needed to care about the time management, this time, I felt we didn't enough time to make the outcome.
