[Guests] 8 members from Iloilo City in the Philippines (having intensive training at JICA Yokohama in Japan for 10 days)
[Language] English
The visitors were the participants of the grass-roots technical cooperation of JICA named “the Community Project of Disaster Prevention at Iloilo City in the Philippines,” which was the collaboration of Yokohama City and CITYNET. We took a train to Kamakura. It was their first experience to ride a train because there are no train services in Iloilo City. They were very cheerful and lively. We visited Hataage Benten Shrine in Tsutugaoka Hachimangu Shrine. They were impressed by children wearing kimono for Shichi-Go-San that they took photos of them. Lastly, they were very pleased with our present, Japanese paper dolls made by KSGG members.
