In the first few years of the 1990's, under the umbrella of Les Clefs d'Or Singapore, some pioneers were admitted to Les Clefs d'Or Singapore as Adherent Members. By 1997, the Les Clefs d'Or Japan Branch increased enough in number that we decided to apply as a new chapter, Les Clefs d'Or Japan, at the next congress in Budapest. Jerry Soh helped us greatly at this time. Currently, there are four categories of members governed by the Executive Committee of Les Clefs d'Or Japan: 1 Honorary Member, 14 Full Members, 3 Adherent Members, and 7 Associate Members. Once every 2 months, on the 3 rd Wednesday, we meet to improve our services and also strengthen our network.
