On Tuesday, May 24th, a scholarship award ceremony was held for Kasuga, the 7th recipient of the Kyoto-Mexico Friendship Program. The award certificate was presented by Mr. Nanbu, the Program’s Chairperson and Chairperson of NABEL Co., Ltd, and the certificate of scholarship was handed by Professor Tetsushi Horikawa, Chancellor and Chair of the Board of Governors.

With the certificates in hand, Kasuga commented, “I got to know about Japanese language and culture since I was little because of my grandparents and I’m grateful to be able to study in Japan. I will study hard so that I can make use of all my experiences here for as many people as possible.” Although she seemed nervous, she delivered her speech in Japanese very well.

Dr. Yoshikazu Morita, Supreme Advisor to KUFS, said, “Studying in Kyoto is a wonderful opportunity. I wish you the best in using this opportunity to your advantage and help broaden the connection between Kyoto and Mexico.” Mr. Nanbu said, “Welcome to Japan. I wish you a safe and healthy year here in Kyoto to pursue your studies.”
