Japan Festival in Perth

On March 10, the Japan Festival was held in Perth in Western Australia. This year was the 5th anniversary of this event that showcases various aspects of Japanese Culture, from traditional culture to pop culture such as anime and cosplay. This year, Mr. Kojiro Fujihara, Principal Trombonist of the Japan Philharmonic Orchestra, was invited to the event and gave wonderful performances of some popular Japanese songs. There were a lot of other cultural performances as well that showcased different aspects of Japan and fascinated visitors.

CLAIR Sydney promoted Japanese tourism at the booth run by the Consulate-General of Japan in Perth. Many visitors stopped by the booth and obtained tourism information by reading through brochures of each prefecture. This event highlighted the great interest in Japanese culture and tourism in Australia.

  • 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.
