Abstract: 

The influence of Japanese statisticians on the teaching of statistics has been insignificant; we still have no research and teaching institute such as a Department of Statistics in Japanese Universities. The following are examples of our efforts and indications of the improvement in the environment and the quality of statistical teaching in Japan.
