At the meeting, Ambassador Oka, Dato’ Zuraidah and others exchanged views on the achievements by the Forum and its Alumni Association’s volunteering that was inspired by their experiences during the training in Japan. They agreed to collaborate closely to further utilize and disseminate the results of the training toward the 40th anniversary of Look East Policy in 2022.
