* Having been present as a guest at the time, we well remember how Mr Ryoichi Sasakawa, Chairman of the Japan Shipbuilding Industry Foundation, mounted the platform of the assembly hall in Nairobi and announced this splendid donation. So it seems most fitting that the prize should bear his name — officially as above, though on our own illuminated certificate from the Secretary-General of the United Nations it is indicated as ‘The International Sasakawa Environment Prize’ (sic), and on the tall crystal-glass emblem received from the Japanese Ambassador to Kenya but dominated by the UNEP emblem, as the ‘Sasakawa Environment Prize… 1987 UN Environment Programme.’—Ed.
