In the gracious presence of Their Royal Highnesses Sultan Nazrin
Muizzuddin Shah ibni Almarhum Sultan Azlan Muhibbuddin Shah
Al-Maghfullah, and Raja Permaisuri Tuanku Zara Salim, a Ceremony was
hosted by Ambassador Miyagawa at the Japanese Ambassador’s residence on
9th August 2016.
Mrs Akie Abe, wife of Prime Minister, decided
to donate books on Japanese language and culture--“Akie Library”-- to
the Malay College Kuala Kangsar (MCKK), one of the most traditional and
renowned boys’ residential schools in Malaysia, on the occasion of her
visit to Malaysia with Prime Minister Shinzo Abe last November. Tokyo
Gas Co, Ltd. has also decided to contribute to MCKK, in order to
promote Japanese language education.
In the ceremony,
Ambassador Miyagawa handed-over the inventory of “Akie Library” to Mr
Anand bin Baharuddin, Principal of MCKK, and Tokyo gas also presented
its contribution by dispatching a Japanese language teacher to MCKK.
A
wide range of participants from related organizations (Ministry of
Education Malaysia, Perak State Education Office, Japan Foundation
Kuala Lumpur, as well as Japanese language institutions from secondary
schools, preparatory schools, universities to in-service training
institutions) attended the event. We hope that the related
organizations will strengthen their network and cooperation towards
further progress of Japanese language education in Malaysia.
