The Golden Pheasant Award (黄金の功労きじ章 kin no kōrō kiji-shō), usually shortened to kiji-shō, is the highest award for adult leaders in the Scout Association of Japan. It is awarded by the Chief Scout of Japan, awarded for eminent achievement and meritorious service to the Association for a period of at least twenty years. It may be awarded to any member of a Scout Association affiliated with the World Organization of the Scout Movement.[1]
The award consists of a medallion depicting a stylized golden pheasant, suspended from a white ribbon with two red stripes worn around the neck.

Notes
The original Japanese list[3] does not assign strict chronological numbering, rather by category. The first category is political, and in honorific order as number 1 is the current Heisei emperor, although he received the award chronologically third in that category. The second category are Japanese Scouters, again starting with number 1 Michiharu Mishima. The third category are non-Japanese recipients, and again the list cycles back to 1, being Martin B. Williams. In addition, Akira Watanabe is out of numerical sequence. Posthumously conferred are marked with (‡).
