Mutual aid society... an old, bad Showa-era relief system that has long been run by middle-aged store owners in the shopping district with a "spirit of mutual aid where we help each other". Nowadays, it is no longer limited to mutual aid between store owners, but has become something that, with a semi-tacit understanding, "will also help housewives in the neighborhood who regularly use the shopping district with their sudden needs, in a spirit of mutual aid".... "Our mutual aid society will provide immediate cash assistance to housewives in the city who are in trouble with sudden household expenses... lol".
