My name is Tsuyoshi Tane. I am a Japanese architect and I have been designing the Estonian National Museum since 2006 as one of the founders of DGT. Since I started to come to Estonia in 2006, I understood that this project was one of the biggest dreams of Estonian nations after independence. Then we had this mission to open the door for the Estonian future which was based on our concept of "Memory Field". And at the same time, thanks to the jury members and many Estonian people and friends who were involved in the project who dared to support this idea that pushes to take off the legacy of a military runway towards the future. During this process, the project has had many difficulties and problems, including the twice rejections by the EU's cultural investments, the economic crisis of Lehman Brothers and some other political issues, and so on... nevertheless, over the ten years of work, finally, the Estonian National Museum is completed and we celebrated the opening on October 1st, 2016 as a historical moment for Estonia. And now we got the fifth year's anniversary. As I have concerns around the ENM neighborhoods, you may already hear or probably know, there are housing developments going on behind the ENM building. According to the agreement, in 2008 there was a commitment by the State to acquire the land and protection to the environment in this area. But it seems that this agreement has not been done, and the situation is still unsettled. After the opening of the ENM, the value of the land increased and the municipality and investors made an interest to plan to build many housings... In this situation, there was an urban forum on Raadi was held at ERM on 6 and 7 October 2021 that I have participated in, where five teams of academics, architects, landowners, and municipality discussed this and other issues that need to be addressed. In conclusion, various ideas for improvement were proposed, but we could not lead to a fundamental solution to the problems to solve. I have therefore come to the conclusion that the situation is urgent and needs to be resolved for the future and that only action can be taken with the help of large governance, which is the reason why I write to you this letter, Dear Ms Kaja Kallas - Prime Minister of Estonia for your support. In the process of urban development, many people are involved and have many interests, which means that sometimes mistakes are made. But instead of blaming and complaining, we want to discuss good visions for the future, to find the great forces that give people courage, so that those wills can move forward to solve the problems. But I believe that by taking that courageous step we can turn the short-term idea of capitalist development into a cultural heritage for the Estonian society and importance for the future. I would like to propose: 1) To acquire the lands currently under development, which is the area surrounding this ERM, as state land. 2) To acquire private land and designate this area as a "Cultural Heritage Preservation Area" to be protected by the State. (See attached) The reason why this is so urgent is that if we don't acquire the land as soon as possible, the price of the land, the cost of construction by the investors and the selling price of the property will be larger and harder to negotiate or to cover. (The land on both sides of the ERM has already been constructed.) In this context, the Estonian Heritage, Union of Architects and of course our friends from ENM and so on. By having your voice as president of Estonia, we would be able to act to the current situation. Thereafter, we will be able to propose concrete measures to the Tartu Municipality, such as urgent changes and improvements to the urban planning of the area, the establishment of regulations, the protection of forests and afforestation. At the same time, we would like to establish a relationship with the Tartu Municipality in which the members of the committee will regularly observe the development policy of the municipality so that we can create a better local environment. I have experienced the growth of Estonia together for 15 years. With the creation of the Estonian National Museum, about one million visitors from 90 countries, nationally and internationally. The great historical celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Republic being take a place at ENM in 2018, the cultural city of Tartu has begun to come alive and revitalize. We believe that ENM, as a symbol of Estonia now, is Estonia's proudest wisdom of people and that we should carry on this cultural heritage to the future.
