I uploaded a gif file with the Japanese constitution written in Gregg, I don’t remember where I took it from.
It’s in documents section

The Gregg Group was founded 22 May 2004, prompted by the lack of online shorthand resources. As the primary use for shorthand — business and legal recording — has waned in recent decades, we generally acclaim the skill as a hobby or personal tool. The purpose of the group is to promote the use of Gregg systems of shorthand by providing advice to beginners, support for students, and an association of users of this efficient, attractive, and enjoyable method of writing.

That was pretty neat.
As an aside, I do remember reading that Zoubek (Leslie? Dupraw?) wowed an audience by taking dictation at 150 wpm in Japanese, a language he knew nothing about. The shorthand written was purely phonetic and was designed to shatter the theory that students "can't write words they don't already know with any speed."
The readback must have been hysterical for anyone who spoke Japanese!

I have found the site where I took the file from: http://www.fiberbit.net/user/masakoi/nai.html Konnichiwa
Wow! There are samples according with some topics: fruits, human body, etc. It looks like Anniversary system. There are some images with broken links, but these are the right ones: http://www.fiberbit.net/user/masakoi/human10.gif

That looks to me to be the Diamond Jubilee Series. I say that by looking at the lack of a vowel-reversal principle (eliminating Anniversary), and the lack of the tilting of the o hook in words like corn (eliminating Simplified).
Fun reference. 🙂
Yes, it is DJS. Notice how he writes "school", "store", "book" , and "founded".
