The friendship exchange between Omani students and Japanese students
The exchange between AI IBDAA International Private School from Oman and Japanese students was made possible by Dr. Ambassador Al Busaidi’s kind understanding of the need to promote student-to-student exchanges and the willingness of Kawasaki Tachibana High School to cooperate and participate. Thirty-five students from Oman (accompanied by 3 teachers) and 28 students from Tachibana High School (accompanied by 2 teachers, Ms. Toyama and Ms. Zhang) participated in the exchange program.
At the beginning of the event, Ambassador Busaidi gave a welcome speech. The Ambassador continued by introducing Oman as a country with a rich history and culture, explaining the importance of friendship with Japan and his work as Ambassador. He invited questions from both the Omani and Japanese students and attentively answered each one.
After the Ambassador’s welcoming speech and a warm exchange, the students voluntarily broke into mixed groups of two countries, for an enjoyable exchange of ideas and deepening of friendships.
This student exchange was carried out on the initiative of Omani and Japanese students who are interested in international exchange, and in the manner of direct dialogue in English.
Cross-cultural exchange and friendship activities between the young generations of Oman and Japan will deepen understanding and respect for Islamic history and culture, and expand and develop the circle of friendship and goodwill between the two countries.
Japan Oman Society will continue to work closely and cooperate with Ambassador Busaidi in activities that contribute to friendship and exchange among the younger generation.
