Soka Gakkai President Minoru Harada announced the amendment of the Constitution of the Soka Gakkai. He also encouraged participants to engage in dialogue to expand the circle of friendship.  

The meeting was held in conjunction with an SGI General Meeting. Those present included 280 leaders from 75 countries and territories who were visiting Japan for a training course during which they also took part in a ceremony commemorating the first anniversary of the passing of President Daisaku Ikeda.
