Eleven Japanese university and graduate students will visit Cambodia to study Kendo, one of Japan’s proud traditional martial arts. While on-site, participants will gain an understanding of the country’s politics, economy, history, and culture through site visits, and consider the similarities and differences between the two countries. During exchanges with local universities, participants will give presentations on the appeal of Japan and demonstrate Kendo, and Cambodian students will also perform, in order to deepen mutual friendships. We also do homestays and gain an awareness of the differences in different cultures and customs. By introducing the charms of Japan to the people we meet in Cambodia, we will not only increase their interest in Japan, but also work to strengthen networks for further friendship between the two countries.
