Vol. 23 Fukuoka

Fukuoka Prefecture is located in the southern part of Japan. It is blessed by the Genkai Sea so seafood sold in the prefecture is all fresh and cheap. Local cuisines such as tonkotsu ramen, and mizutaki (chicken hotpot) are highly recommended for foodies. If you are a fan of rugby, you probably won’t want to miss the Rugby World Cup 2019 held in Japan. Fukuoka Prefecture is one of the host cities and the Australian and New Zealander teams will be playing matches in Oita Prefecture next to us! Come and see matches in Kyushu Island, at the same time check out the delicious food in Fukuoka!

It features thin noodles in a thick, creamy white pork bone soup topped with slices of chashu (barbecued pork). Some of the best places to enjoy a bowl of ramen would be the yatai food stalls along the streets.

  • 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.
