**TAKEMURA:** I see. All right. That's about all. I mean I shouldn't take too much of your time.

Now, I have some favor to ask of you. This will be one of the biggest programs of the year for Japanese television. And it is on the New Year's Eve. And we want to do some preadvertisement, a sort of pre-publicity activity. Can we use some portion of this program before the New Year's Eve? And also can we use some portion in some weeklies, so that they will know that on the New Year's Eve there will be a big program.

**KISSINGER:** Yes.

**TAKEMURA:** I see, that'll be fine. I think --- and it was good...

**KISSINGER:** Very good questions.

**TAKEMURA:** Thank you very much. I have had programs everyday for the past four long years and I have met thousands of important people from around the world but you excited me most. Indeed.

**KISSINGER:** Thank you.

**TAKEMURA:** And I hope I will get a chance to see you again.

**KISSINGER:** Yes, well, I hope to come to Japan again.
