As a mental sport that transcends race and nationality and borders, Go is widely loved by the people of the world. It is our hope that Go will be enjoyed by even more people so that the Go population of the world can expand even further.
To help further this aim, we have devised and striven to popularize the game of Pair Go as a grass-roots tool for international communication, using black and white stones as the world's common language. As a result, the circle of Pair Go fans is expanding year by year. Since the holding of the 1st International Pair Go Championship in 1989, Pair Go has spread rapidly among Go fans around the world. Nowadays, Pair Go provides a new stage for formal socialization in countries around the world.
In recent years, the number of people enjoying Go on the Internet has been increasing rapidly, and there are now said to be nearly 10,000 people enjoying playing Go on the Internet. We have developed a system called the PANDA NET which uses highly developed software to facilitate playing Go by computer communications.
Pair Go and the PANDA NET: these tools are designed to expand the world's Go population by linking activity in countries around the world centring on the PGPP (Pair Go Promotion Partner) in each country. The aim is to increase the current Go-playing population of the world by three to five times, that is, to one hundred million. We are doing our best to ensure the attainment of this goal by the early 21 st century.
It is our hope that this book will also play a part in attaining our goal.
