  • Research Presentations for Fiscal Year 2002 

    The research presentations of the AISF scholarship recipients for fiscal year 2002 were held last Saturday, March 1, 2003 at the Atsumi Foundation. The foundation's final activity was successfully concluded thanks to the participation of the current and next batch of scholarship recipients, the members of Raccoon-Kai (alumni association), the foundation's directors, and those who provide assistance for international students in Japan. Mrs. Itsuko Atsumi, Executive Director, explained the history of the dolls desplayed in the hall for Doll's Festival (March 3). The presentations were made splendidly, although the presenters met with some difficulty in trying to explain, within 15 minutes, their research results in terms understandable to a child. Some presenters challenged using PowerPoint (Presentation Software) for the first time, but they all went very well. The presentations were followed by greetings from AISF Director Dr. Tatsuji Kataoka, Professor Yoshibumi Hida of the International Christian University, and Mr. Taichi Sasaoka of the Tsuji Asia International Scholarship Foundation. The meeting was concluded by an invitation to the Sekiguchi Global Research Association (SGRA) from Mr. Tadahiro Shimazu, Chief of its Operation Committee. Participants all enjoyed the glasses of beer, various dishes of Chinese cuisine, as well as lively conversation. On the request of Mr. Abliz Yimit, one of the current scholarship recipients, the hat was passed around for donations to the assistance fund for the victims of the earthquake disaster that hit the Uighur area in China last month.
