Masahiro Chono teams up with DDT! ‘STF Project’ launched to raise awareness of community disaster prevention & life saving!

Masahiro Chono, known for his involvement in community disaster prevention and AED emergency life-saving initiatives, has teamed up with DDT to launch the STF (Safety Task Force) project. This project aims to cultivate a society built on values of ‘compassion’ and ‘mutual aid’.

The STF project will offer a series of events combining professional wrestling with awareness-raising on ‘disaster prevention’, ‘disaster mitigation’, and ‘lifesaving’. These events will be based on up-to-date information regarding public, mutual, and self-help strategies, reflecting the diverse lifestyles of our communities.

The project will feature three main programs:

About Masahiro Chono's Activities:
Masahiro Chono initiated his involvement in AED emergency lifesaving and community disaster prevention awareness activities within the professional wrestling community following the passing of his colleagues Shinya Hashimoto in July 2005 and Mitsuharu Misawa of Noah in June 2009. He completed a Lifesaving Training Course at the Tokyo Fire Department in March 2010.

The focus on disaster prevention, mitigation, and AED emergency lifesaving preparedness underscores the collaboration between public and private sectors.

Masahiro Chono's efforts have been recognized by numerous fire stations, fire brigades, and organizations, including the Tokyo Fire Department and the Metropolitan Police Department, for fostering juvenile health and preventing delinquency through cooperative activities.
