THE GOALS OF THE JAPANESE SURGICAL SOCIETY SHOULD BE NOT SPECIALIZED SURGERY BUT GENERAL SURGERY, SURGICAL EDUCATION AND A POLICICAL APPROACH
The Japan Surgical Society (JSS) should investigate mainly general surgery, surgical education, and political approach. The Specialized surgery, which has also been studied by the JSS, should be fully evaluated in various subspecialty surgical societies, i. e. gastrointestinal, respiratory, circulatory, pediatric, and others. This is reasonable, since the board of each subspecialty has the same basic requirements as the board of the JSS and this is how the JSS and other surgical subspecialty societies can coexist. In addition, the JSS must make efforts to improve surgeons' lives overall by means of effective politics and to motivate medical students to become surgeons to prevent a scarcity, which will also contribute to the welfare of the public.
