3. Journalist briefing and Farewell Dinner
On the last day of their official business, a group of 40 people, which included the journalists alongside other prominent figures, joined together at the Tokyo Club for a farewell dinner. APIC president Mr. Peter Sato, FPCJ director Mr. Kiyotaka Akasaka, and FPCJ board of trustee member Mr. Hatsuhisa Takashima each gave a brief speech, and the six participating journalists gave a short presentation on their impressions of Japan during their one week stay.
4. Article Publication
Each journalist drafted up an article on their stay in Japan to be published by their home media. One of the participating journalists, Mr. Giff Johnson, wrote an article titled “Japan integrates vision, technology, and determination”, in particular citing the city of Toyota as the model for this convergence. His article can be read in the Mariana’s Variety online site.
(The other articles will be reported in the future.)
