Awarding a Decoration

2006-11-16 Thu 08:00

The other day father of a friend of mine accepted a decoration. He was working for a post office for a long time. He was a public servant.

To tell the truth, I had not known much about the decoration system until then. I studied it. I found that basically decorations are awarded to public servants. Of course, private citizens can also receive decoration, but awarding is limited to very special people. My company's former president accepted a decoration, but the class of his decoration is very low.

That is, the decoration system is for public servants. Public servants can easily get the upper class of decoration than giant corporation's presidents.

I see, I also realized that I will never be able to get a decoration. Hahaha.

By the way, people working in the post office will not able to get a decoration in the future because it is privatized. Some people must be now very disappointed.
