Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda held a ceremony to commend contributors to the building of safe and reassuring communities at the Prime Minister's Office.

This ceremony is held to acknowledge and praise the people or groups that have made significant contributions to the promotion of building safe and reassuring communities for realizing a society resistant to crime. It is thereby aimed at promoting excellent activities over a large area for building safe and reassuring communities.

The Prime Minister said in his address,

"I would like to extend my heartfelt congratulations to the crime prevention volunteers who were awarded today, and my sincere respect and gratitude to their daily efforts.
You have been engaged with individual ingenuity in voluntary crime prevention activities, including patrolling, watching over children in school zones, visiting the homes of elderly people and making efforts in environment beautification, and have made great contribution in ensuring the safety of and giving reassurance to residents.
You are precisely the role-model of the region.
These daily efforts raise people's awareness that they need to take action themselves to protect their own community, and at the same time deepen bonds among the people within the community, forming a base for building a community with good public order where people can live safely and with peace of mind.
I expect from my heart that these chains of valuable efforts for the public will be expanded further and contribute to realizing a society resistant to crime."
