MAXI/GSC detected an increase in X-ray flux from a Be/X-ray binary pulsar GX 304-1 on 2012 Jan 8 (MJD 55934.5). The source flux reached 23+-5 mCrab in 4-10 keV on Jan 8. This event is consistent with the onset of the recurrent outburst with the 132.5-day period (ATel #3624), the tenth of the successive outbursts since the source activity resumed on 2008 Jun following the 28-year absence (ATel #1613).
