The traditional dance and songs of the indigenous people of Hokkaido Ainu started just in front of the top brasses of Hawaii including the new Governor of the State of Hawaii The Honorable Mr. Josh Green, his predecessor Mr. David Yutaka Ige and the Legend Mr. George Ariyoshi, the first Japanese-American Governor in the US.
The Ainu performance started so solemnly and the eyes of the audiences focused on the move of the performers. Even the delegation from Yamaguchl Prefecture was struck and overwhelmed by the atmosphere created by the performers.
The Lady played the role of the deer hit by the arrow shot by the Ainu hunter. The performers were the representatives of
the Ainu Association in Hokkaido. They showed their best performance on this big opportunity.
