Director-General for Sorachi sub-prefectural area Mr. Yamane reported on their courtesy visit to Taiwan paid in last March.  

The Secretary General of Iwamizawa Chamber of Commerce and Industry Mr. Yamamoto exerted his best effort to hold this annual general meeting of Hokkaido Sorachi Japan-Taiwan Friendship Association. The senior board member of the chamber Mr. Shinya also devoted himself for the success of the meeting.    

The board members of the association were seated in front of the audience.

 A party was thrown after the general meeting. The president of the association Mr. Tajima seemed to enjoy talking on their visit to Taiwan with Mr. Yamane. The Vice President of the association Mr. Yamamoto from Takikawa Chamber of Commerce and Industrywas on the left. He also visited Taiwan with us.

The Vice President of the association Mr. Yoshizumi who runs a company trading rice and Mr. Iwaki who is the chair person Naganuma Chanber of Commerce and Industry did not visit Taiwan in last March but they are eager to find business chances in the .

relationship between Hokkaido and Taiwan.

 Please allow me to post all the photos taken in the party for the members of the association.

I hope the relationship between Sorachi sub-prefectural area and Taiwan will get strong and tight. That will stabilize the East Asia.  

 So many Taiwanese people visit Hokkaido every year and the number is still growing.

On the other hand, the visitors from Hokkaido to Taiwan are much fewer. It is the point to be changed.

 The staff members of Iwamizawa Chamber of Commerce and Industry that worked also for the association seemed to enjoy enough the Chinese ? Taiwanese ? cuisine served by Sun Plaza Hotel Iwamizawa.

 

Approximately the half of members of the association attended the party on the day.

Mr. Tagariko on the right also visited Taiwan with us. He really enjoyed the tour so much.

Actually I visited all the cities and towns in Sorachi sub-prefectural area to establish this association. I really appreciate the cooperation of the members for taking part in the association and the party thrown on the day.  

 The Secretary-General of Iwamizawa Chamber of Commerce and Industry Mr. Yamamoto had to go around the party room for exchanging business cards and greeting.
The party was wrapped up by the speech and toast by Mr. Iwaki, the Chairperson of Naganuma Chamber of Commerce and Industry. We will meet again in the new year party to be held next January. See you again !
