What?  Really?  The Weekly Shogi Magazine has reported that she might have
been in England, which is compeletely different from Papua-New guinea.
Also she has clearly written that she had nothing to do with any boy
friends in her disappearance, in the letter to Shogi Association (Renmei)
sent before her disappearance.
Is Mr. Sandeman a boy friend of Ms. Hayashiba?  Were they only playing
Shogi in the tropical island?  :-)
