(Translation) Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Your answer is appreciated. I'm not just talking about minor charges, I'm talking about very serious charges that have to be dealt with through the justice system. I'm not just concerned about murder charges, but for other more serious charges. We all know these reasons. Maybe we'll have reason to be happier about the future when there is a better relationship with the justice system and it considers cultural factors in the communities. When the majority of native people have started to take over the justice system, it will be much easier on the native people they have to deal with.
