Greetings of starting for the new post 　
MIYAGAWA Shinichi, Dr.

Hello, everybody! 　
This time I say Shinichi Miyagawa who became a medical worker to Bangladesh.

　My hometown is the town where it was a castle town of Date-han, Uwajima-shi, Ehime Prefecture. Dr. IWAMURA Noboru of JOCS Nepal worker dropped in at every return home at Uwajima Nakanomachi United Church of Christ which was my attendance church in those days, and it was good by a lecture was performed in the days of a junior high student. It is supported “it by the words that I may have realized, and at last, to an attendant, continuation of a feeling to run after a dream” will step forward to the first step as a worker this time when I long for the overseas medical world that he tells.

The way wanted to be a way of a doctor after Uwajima East High School graduation from high school distantly, but the quite good way entered Faculty of theology of Kansei Gakuin. My subject of concern there was about "pains of a person", and the specialty chose systematic theology. There is medical care on an extension line of theological learning, and it thinks that it was a way of step it agrees among me, and to reach a direction. A viewpoint and experience of the thing which theological, learning it was deep, and was broken faith of then by the root, and was the severe thing which should have rebuilt again, but was able to get for an attendance at school period today in what when is hard to exchange it. In addition, church life at day Koshien Church, a Student Association and that it is for a driving force to assume this starting for the new post a real thing for a relation to Kamagasaki, the internship that I spent in particular in Bangladesh through an Asian International Summer School (SIEA).

I graduated from the University of Tokushima Medical Department and worked in general medicine / psychosomatic medicine / rehabilitation department after the super-rotate (over plural courses) training in Fukuoka Tokusyukai Hospital. Psychosomatic medicine is the medical examination and treatment department that is different from psychiatry in "general medicine (psychosomatic medicine) to examine without distributing heart. As specialities have of practice of all people medical care, the posture thinks that there are overseas medical it and a thing having something common.

By the way, at a hospital carrying out the medical service that took root in the area where CHC (Christian Hospital Chandragohna) of starting for the new post place was established in Chittagon hill areas of the Bangladesh Southeast in 1907, Dr.Hatano and Dr. Oyake are the place that started for its new post from JOCS. As the hospital where there is an only emergency surgery in the area where many few mountaineers group lives in, I perform it for nursing education or a community medicine as well as a medical service. My role is to engage in community health activities in Chittagon hill areas including a place of residence of a minority race as a foothold at this hospital. I think to be pleased with that I can participate in a new project to start in this area where political expectations and religion, a racial problem.

What I am thought to be at present is an abstract thing the formation, environment adjustment of collaboration, the system that I met the use of substitute supplement medical care (traditional medical care), the spot of NGOs. However, I think that I become clear as a laborer aiming at independence slowly together therefore "what" I can practice "how". I ask to be able to have good advice and support of people on a given occasion by all means. 　Michiyo of my wife is going to begin life in Bangladesh together this time. I feel it in a heart in total, and a work of a family as a fellow worker is happy if I have you pray.
