If something happens in Japan and you struggle to make yourself understood in Japanese, how can you communicate the problem to others? “Communication Support Board, Police Version” is here for such occasions. 50 sentences including “I lost something” and “I feel sick” are written on it in Japanese, English, Chinese and Korean together with illustrations. By simply pointing to a phrase, people will understand what you want to say. At present you can obtain it from an increasing number of police boxes and police stations all over the country, but it will be possible in the future for you to download it from the site of Meiji Yasuda Kokoro no Health Foundation (It already enables you to download a version of “What I want to say.”).
