This applies to all kinds of people\u2014 not just women\u2014as well as animals, things andgestures.  Kawaii-ku was launched as part of the City\u2019s efforts to promote Fukuoka\u2019s many strong points\u2014 healthy and delicious foods, the compact scale of the city, the history of exchange with Asia, our creative culture and our wealth of talent\u2014under the banner of \u201ckawaii\u201d. Over 40,000 people have already registered as \u201cresidents\u201d.  At present, however, the Fukuoka Gender Equality Promotion Council is reviewing four complaints that claim Kawaii-ku assists gender discrimination. We feel it is highly unfortunate that we have been unable to sufficiently communicate our objectives for Kawaii-ku and why we think it is a meaningful project."}
