Draft Cabinet submission
 Submit to the Cabinet on the matter of erecting markers of the attachment
 (attachment)
 Kuba and Uotsuri Islands located to the northwest of the Yaeyama Islands in Okinawa Prefecture used to be uninhabited islands, but recently people have been going to these islands to attempt fishery and other pursuits. Since this activity needs to be controlled, the Governor of the Prefecture has reported that the Prefecture has an intention to make the islands as the jurisdictional area of the Prefecture and to erect markers [on the islands]. I would therefore like to have [the Prefecture] erect the markers in accordance with the report, in recognition that the islands belong to the Prefecture.
 I request Cabinet meeting on the above.
