Back in 2010, MABT started with 30+ TAC members concerned about the way the TAC was being managed and changing stories about the finances (sounds like some government budgets somewhere..). In 2020, MABT reunited as members wanted to promote transparency from the board of governors, committees, and club management after the club was shut down by two board members locking members out. Members spoke up and have been actively connecting and discussing the issues on this website and in social media groups.
We’re happy, we’re positive, and we’re TAC members. We all ‘own’ the club and we all have to be accountable to each other regarding information and decisions. There is still a lot of ‘gray’ in how the club is governed and we all want to MAKE A BETTER TAC. Members still need a voice.
We are please to announce that we decided to rebrand our TAC members group to be supporting members group for the board of governors, TAC employees, but most importantly to voice the common needs of dues paying members. Effective immediately, MABT becomes
ABTAC or A Better Tokyo American Club. ABTAC will continue to host member discussions here on www.abetteramericanclub.com
Suggestions? Let us know how we can enhance this wonderful international community in the center of Tokyo. Remember we’re TAC members, we’re professional, and we’re always positive. More on our site policies here.
