国交省（MLIT）の支援で、バッタンバン市におけるスマートシティ実現向けマスタープラン策定支援プロジェクトに関するプリキックオフオンライン会議が実施されました。その際、逐次通訳担当させていただきました。

お陰様で、無事で終了できました。最後に、本案件を通じて、バッタンバン市がよりスマートなシティ実現する意気込みを、両側は表しながら、本案件の成果に大きな期待を寄せました。

また、新たに日本カンボジアの架け橋になることができて、嬉しい限りです。

“Fly and never tire, Fly and never tire, There’s a great camp-meeting in the Promised Land.” FROM AN AFRICAN AMERICAN SPIRITUAL

“Don’t discount our powers; We have made a pass At the infinite.” _ROBERT FROST, “KITTY HAWK”

The book starts with the dedication to Michelle as love and Life Partner, his 2 daughters: Malia and Sasha as Dazzling Life makes everything brighter.

PART I

• Presidency is just a job and our federal government is a human enterprise like any other, and the men and women who in the White House experience the same daily mix of satisfaction, disappointment, office friction, screw-ups, and small triumphs as the rest of their fellow citizens.
• There are people in this world who think only about themselves, they don’t care what happened to other people so long as they get what they want. They put other people down to make themselves feel important. Then, there are people who do the opposite, whoever imagine how other people must feel, to make sure they don’t hurt other people. So, what kind of person you want to be?
• American Ideal: What country was? and What it could become? The promise of America? –> “All men are created equal”
• Tremendous energy of the movement couldn’t be sustainable without the structure, organization, and skills and governance.
• The Conflicts: Between working for change within the system, and pushing against it…The world as it is and the worlds as it should be.
• Description about Michelle:
  • Original,
  • She constantly challenges me and keep me honest.
  • Make each other laugh and share the same basic values,
  • Complement each other, have each other’s back, guard each other’s blind spot, team
  • In another way of saying, we were very different in experience and in temperament.
• For Michelle: The road to the good life is narrow, and full of hazard. Family was all what you could count on. OUTWARD SUCCESS, a good job, a nice house, never makes you feel ambivalent because failure and want were all around you, just a lay off were shooting away. No matter how well you did, you belong in a room…Prove not to those who doubt at you, but to yourself.
• What’s the point to have a fancy law degree if you can’t take some risks? if it doesn’t work, it doesn’t work.
• Have you ever noticed? when there is a hard way and easy way, you always chose the hard way. What do you think that is?

** Inspirations for Obama to run for the presidential election
– There are people looking for something different
– His colleague said:, ” 10 more years in the senate, it won’t make you a better president.”
– people’s expectation

Michelle asked: “Why do you need to be the president?”

Obama:
– It’s for new kind of politics.
– For New generations to take part in politics
– On the day I raise my right hand to take oath to be the president, the WORLD WILL START LOOKING AT AMERICA differently.
– Kids all around this country, black kids, Hispanic kids, the kids who don’t fit in, they’ll see something differently, too. The Horizon left in, the Possibility Expanded.
– For personal reason: If I win, I can say: the America that I believed in was possible.
. The Democracy I believed in was within reach.
. I wasn’t alone in believing that the world doesn’t need to be a cold and unforgiving place, the strong pranked the weak, enabling us to fall back into the clance, tribes, rushing out against the unknown, hurdling against the darkness.

____THEORY OF CONSTRAINTS____

JUNE 24th, 2021

* LOGIC ANALYSIS/THINKING PROCESS*

* OBJECTIVE: TO FIND THE 1 OR 2 CORE PROBLEMS, NOT THE SYMPTOM, BECAUSE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM, WE NEED TO CURE THE CORE PROBLEM, NOT THE SYMPTOM.

* PROCESS:

1) SUMMARIZE ALL THE UNDESIRABLE EFFECTS/PROBLEMS INTO 5 TO 10 ITEMS–> CURRENT REALITY TREE;

2) TRY TO IDENTIFY THE CAUSE AND EFFECT RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN AT LEAST TWO OF THE UNDESIRABLE EFFECTS/PROBLEMS.

3) TRY CONNECT ALL THE UNDESIRABLE EFFECTS/PROBLEMS BY USING THE EXPRESSION: IF…….. AND …….., THEN…….

* EXAMPLE IN THIS BOOK:
A SON ASKED HIS FATHER TO USE HIS CAR WHILE HE IS AWAY ON BUSINESS TRIP FOR 1 WEEK BY PROMISING TO PAY THE GASOLINE BY HIMSELF, HOWEVER, HIS FATHER IS RELUCTANT TO LEND HIM THE CAR. THE REASON IS BASED ON HIS LOGIC ANALYSIS AS FOLLOWS:
. When someone can use something regularly, it will become a habit, THEN, you get used to have your car at your own exposure.

>>>If….and….then….(expression)
..IF you get used to have use your car at your own exposure, AND I don’t want to share the car with you, THEN, you feel bad.

* CONCLUSION:
What you need is the intuition to the subject and the willpower to do the meticulous work. It takes about 5 hours or so to use Theory of Constraints to IDENTIFY the CORE PROBLEMS, NOT the symptoms, to solve the problems.

* IT IS ONE OF THE MARKETING BOOK THAT SHOULD BE READ AS A BUSINESSMAN/WOMAN.

** However, the process of logic thinking or analysis can be used for almost every situation with constraints or dilemma in order to find the two or three core problems, hence reach the WIN-WIN solution.

Idea to Fastlane: 1) Control your own business, 2) Leverage it (Time is sold for money, this is not Leverage); 3) Hard work doesn’t feel like work, in fact I enjoy it. Felt Rich and happy. 4) Automation and Process—> Money Tree grows money (the money rolls in) –> Fruit bearing money tree that requires only a few hours to flower it.

The book starts with questioning what is the True Wealth?
According to the Author, the True Wealth is not defined by material possession: Money or Stuffs. 3Fs are the fundamental of True Wealth: Family: Relationship, Fitness: Health and Freedom: Happiness.

Normal is the modern day of slavery. Society’s Corrupted Definition of Wealth–> Normal is corrupted.

Misuse Money and Money will Misuse You.

He goes to question: Money can’t buy happiness? Is it true? Used properly, In reality, Money buy freedom which is one fundamental of happiness.

How about taking a few time to review your business: whether it is a right Fastlane Roadmap / Path to Wealth or not?

According to the book titled: “Millionaire Fastlane”, the millionaire right business roadmap toward the WEALTH must follow the “LAW OF AFFECTION” that follow the 5 Commandments:

1. COMMANDMENT OF CONTROL, “C” Commandment
2. COMMANDMENT OF ENTRY, “E” Commandment
3. COMMANDMENT OF NEED, “N” Commandment
4. COMMANDMENT OF TIME, “T” Commandment
5. COMMANDMENT OF SCALE, “S” Commandment

In Summary, it is called, “CENTS” Framework — don’t start a business to pay your bills, start one to set yourself free– both with time and money.

By M.J. DeMarco, the author, there are 3 different maps and paths used by people to achieve financial success. (1) The Sidewalk, (2) The Slow Lane, (3) The Fastlane (Choose Unlimited Controllable Gain (UCG); Have Your Own Business; Transform Your Lifestyle; Choose the Rapid Wealth Creation)

Other wisdoms of the book:
* Wealth is not the Road, it is a journey. That is to say, what is matter is not the final destination, but the whole process of reaching and enjoying it…
* Deem WEALTH as a construction work, as selling many products_ instead of thinking of yourself as a consumer, build the mindset that you are a producer, and always keep it in the foreground.
* Even if you have found a way, but if you never think it right way, it never turn into the Fastlane.
* You can come up with an idea of a good solution that has market potential and can make you rich, however, this will happen only if you move other pieces of the game:
** Project Execution;
** The Marketing;
** The service or consumer service;
** Your Product;
** The ideas.
* Execution is the King; and the ideas are the pawns.
* Burn the business plan; ignite the execution.
* Paulo Vieira, “Enrichment Factor”: the enrichment journey is made up of peaks and valleys, so be prepared and willing not to stop midway_ never give up make you millionaire.
* Lynda Gratton, “The 100 Year Life”: people must move from 3 stages: education, work, and retirement – to a multiple-stage life, that requires flexibility, and change in the way time is used.
* Jill Schlesinger, “The Dump Smart People Do With Their Money”: people should not invest their money in what they don’t know.
* Stop thinking like an employee and at the end of his life will bear the fruits of his efforts.
* Work with purpose and passion to stay motivated regardless of difficulties.
* Wealth does not depend on formulas, but requires beliefs, lifestyle, and the processes that you define.
* Create product Solutions that ensure process automation and income that is not dependent on your workforce.
* Stop planning and execute! Use execution learning to improve planning, creating an efficient and productive cycle.

STARTUP’S DEPARTURE POINTS : Looking out for Ideas

1. PERSONAL PERSPECTIVE
   • Based on Personal Belief or Personal Know-how such as Personal Viewpoint, Intention, Principle, Feeling, Emotion, Experiences, etc…
2. Market/Social Axis
   • Based on Business Environment, Competitor’s Move, etc…looking out for Business Opportunity, Feasibility, Potential

Continued from Previous Slide, about Startup Book…

1. Originated from Practical Case/Case Study (PAST)
   • Information Collection
   • Look into Foreign Companies which are Good Practice/Success Story and Apply it in Local Context
   • Read Local Publications related to the field
2. Originated from Problem/Inconvenience (PRESENT)
   • Current Existing Service –> Standing on problem perspective –> What if we do it this way, isn’t it more convenient?
   • Thorough examine the user’s behavior not just words, but action–> Indirect Experience Style
3. Originated from the Change in Social Structure (FUTURE)
   • Approach to Forecast Future Needs or Timing of Structural Change (A Little hard)
     • ‘73 & ‘79 Oil Shock, Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, 2019 Covid-19 —> Social Structural Change —> New Services, etc…

Overall, BRAiNSTORMING is the Basic Method.
