Does anyone know if this has been awarded for 2009? I thought that the award was to be announced in March.

From the Kiriyama Prize web site:
"Sept. 14, 2008 — Pacific Rim Voices is grateful for the interest and recognition the Kiriyama Prize has received over the last twelve years. In its efforts to promote books that encourage greater understanding and deeper empathy among peoples, the Prize has brought many outstanding works of fiction and nonfiction to the attention of a global readership.
At the present time the Kiriyama Prize is being restructured. While this process is under way, publishers are kindly asked not to submit further entries. When a new time line and new rules are in place, entries will once again be welcome. Thank you for all your support and we look forward to working with you again."
