Hello, this is Kaburaki, the president of GLI. Today I would like to talk a little about something different from usual.

How Elementary School Students Can Easily Make Friends Abroad."About.

I want to send my child to study abroad!

We want them to be active on a global scale in the future!

and if you have an overseas orientation.Having friends abroad."is very important.

is the only way to do well abroad.Communication."is particularly important,The difference between athletes who "do well abroad" and those who "don't do well abroad" is more than the athlete's ability.Communication Skills."It can be.

That communication, though,Develop communication skills by "making friends abroad.The following is an example of a product that can be used in this way.

However, if you are still unable to communicate well in English and feel that making friends overseas is a hurdle, then I would like you to know about this method. If you feel that this is the case, I would like to let you know about this method,

"Know what you know about foreign countries and tell them about it."

It is. This isIf you know about the country, its language, culture, tourist attractions, etc., and can talk a little about it, you will be well liked by people from other countries.

For example, doesn't it make you feel happy just to hear a foreigner say "Thank you" in Japanese?

The reverse is also true: when people from other countries can talk about their own country, it is easy for them to open up and become friends at once.There is no need to speak fluent English.

I know Big Ben (*Big Ben is the nickname for the great hour bell of the clock tower in London, England).Or fairly simple conversations such as,

Kamsahamnidah (Korean)."Even if you can just say the local greeting such asThey know their country!"and the other party will be happy.

And they also feel "I want to be friends with you! and it is easy to become friends with them.

That being said, first things first.Need to "know what's going on overseas."It will become a

Therefore, GLI offersInternational Day.The event, called "The Japan Foundation's Japan Education Program (JEF)," is a regular event in which a theme country is chosen and participants learn about that country in depth.

(Last time the theme country was London, England.)

This month, theInternational Day.The theme country for this year's event is theSingaporeIt is.

In this event, we will learn about Singapore in depth from various perspectives. It is."Things that even adults don't know."We will also learn about

For example, as a tourist destination in SingaporeMerlion.is well known, though,

Do you know of other famous tourist destinations? For example, you may know this place. It is a famous hotel in Singapore.

While there are modern places like this, there are also places like this.

Don't you think they are totally different types? (LOL)Singapore is a country that is mainly composed of Chinese, Malays, and Indians, and about 30% of the population is foreign.

That is why it is a very interesting country with various cultures as well as tourist attractions as mentioned above. In terms of food, do you know about these foods?

As many of you may know, this is "durian. This durian is very "smelly" (laugh).

But,It is a favorite food of the people in Singapore.

We will also introduce various other Singaporean foods at the day's event. If you know these foods listed below, you may be a Singapore connoisseur.

What do you think? I think these foods are not so common in Japan. It is important to know about foreign cultures not only to make friends abroad in the future, but also to play an active role in foreign countries.

These are just a few examples of the many other events that will be held on International Day...

●Why the name "Singapore" was chosen! Let's find out its origin!

What kind of people are Singaporeans?
