Conferment of the Order of the Rising Sun, Gold and Silver Rays, upon Ms Madeleine Rennie

On 7 Feb, a reception was held by the Consulate-General of Japan in Perth to celebrate the conferment of the Order of the Rising Sun, Gold and Silver Rays, upon Ms Madeleine Rennie. The event was also a networking opportunity for those involved in sister city relationships between Western Australia and Japan. Ms Rennie has been involved in the sister city relationship between the City of Belmont in WA, and Adachi City in Tokyo, and the two cities are celebrating the 35th anniversary of their sister city relationship this year. We are extremely honoured that we were able to join this event.

After the conferment ceremony, our staff were able to network with many representatives from WA who are involved with Japan-Australia sister city relations. It was a great opportunity for us to meet and talk with representatives from the cities such as Perth, Bunbury and Rockingham. We would like to continue supporting sister city exchange activities between Western Australia and Japan.

  • To investigate environmental countermeasures, a student and her chaperone from Hikone Technological High School of Shiga Prefecture visited Australia from late July to early August. CLAIR Sydney conducted a briefing on 29 July about Australia’s culture and customs, and accompanied the group to a company visit in Brisbane on 31 July, where the company, known for producing products using a type of seaweed called Asparagopsis, shared insights into their research and production processes.

    During the visit, they received information on efforts to reduce methane emissions from livestock using Asparagopsis, viewed from a carbon-neutral perspective. The student’s proactive participation in the meetings, driven by a desire to engage in environmental initiatives in the future, was impressive.

    In addition to the briefing and accompaniment, we also reached out to the company to request a representative to discuss their Asparagopsis research. CLAIR Sydney will continue to support the activities of Japanese local governments conducting research on topics related to Australia.
