Talk:Yōhei Sasakawa

Yohei Sasakawa (born January 8, 1939) is chairman of The Nippon Foundation, the World Health Organization Goodwill Ambassador for Leprosy Elimination, and Japan's Ambassador for the Human Rights of People Affected by Leprosy. As chairman of The Nippon Foundation, Japan's largest charitable foundation, he is seen as a pioneer in guiding public-interest activities by the private sector in today's Japan. Sasakawa received his degree from Meiji University’s School of Political Science and Economics.

Hey wait a minute. This article quotes: Cooperation with former President of the United States Jimmy Carter and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Dr. Norman Borlaug to improve African food production; I think this article has it's Sasakawa's confused. This was Ryoichi Sasakawa, a Japanese businessman (1899-1995.) I have a book called "1,000 Years, 1,000 People", on page 85, also refers to the person who assisted Norman Borlaug as being Ryoichi Sasakawa. Some quick web searches back this up as well. In fact, a notable quote made from Sasakawa to Borlaug alludes to the fact that Sasakawa was 15 years older than Borlaug. So this can only be Ryoichi Sasakawa. So, I'm going to remove this erroneous bullet from Yohei Sasakawa's page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.105.90.63 (talk) 04:12, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
