Description

The discovery of a new particle which is consistent with the Higgs Boson has opened up a new era in particle physics. Its precise measurements develops physics beyond the current Standard Model. Japanese high energy community issued a report "Future HEP Projects of Japan" in March 2012. In the report early realization of linear collider is given. In October 2012, based on the consensus of the HEP community of japan, another statement on which contains a recommendation for hosting ILC in Japan with an energy upgrade path in stage staring from a Higgs Factory, was published. in the end of 2012, Technical Design Report of ILC was issued by international efforts. In the light of these developments, the HEP community of Japan propose to push for the construction of ILC in Japan. Other HEP projects, neutrino experiments and other flavour physics will be also discussed in the talk.
