On 4 December 2021, SGM held the Second Headquarters Leaders Conference cum Region and Above Leaders Training Course in celebrating 18 November, Soka Gakkai Founding Day and the 30th anniversary of Soka Gakkai Spiritual Independence Day. In total, some 1,100 central leaders attended this online meeting.

In his message, SGI President Ikeda encouraged the participants that those who have “tirelessly striven for the happiness of others and the welfare of society” amidst the pandemic “will ultimately enjoy happiness without fail.” President Ikeda called on them to continue chanting the daimoku of supreme joy and be the light that imparts hope to illuminate the community with our youths in the vanguard.

In response to the mentor’s call, besides announcing that 2022 will be the Year of Youth and Dynamic Progress along with activities and directions of the year, SGM has come up with the tagline “We arise! Be the light of hope!” to encourage and inspire every member.

SGM General Director Koh Sia Feai reported on the organisational progress and situation in 2021. In efforts to achieve a Youthful SGM in 2002, SGM has set a target of achieving 5,000,000 dialogues and the shakubuku of 12,631 youth, with the youth serving as the main force of action in 2022.

SGM young women’s division leader Lee Kam Yit explained the action plan for achieving a Youthful SGM while sharing her own and other members’ victory reports.
