Many Japanese Brazilians were getting together at  the venue of the ceremony to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the immigration from Hokkaido to Brazil.

 Just before the ceremony, the Speaker of Hokkaido Legislative Assembly Mr. Noritoshi MURATA, the Vice Governor of Hokkaido Mr. Yusuke NAKANO and the President of Brazil-Hokkaido Culture and Welfare Center Mr. Norinobu OHNUMA had a chat in the board room of the association.

 The portraits of the former presidents of the association were displayed on the wall of the board room. They could share the challenges and hopes to run the association in Brazil. Mr. Murata and Mr. Nakano were convinced of the necessity to support the association and to keep the tight relationship with them.
