The Importance of Regular Exchanges of Information（No1）
Until September 2010, the number of people who had participated in seminars held in Japan run by PREX totaled around 4,200. PREX has been keeping touch with participants after they return home through such means as exchange of information at meetings of Alumni Associations and individual contacts with PREX staff. However, in fiscal 2010, for the first time, a “seasonal greetings email” was sent to former participants who had visited Japan in the past, mainly for seminars in fiscal 2009 and 2010.
This photo arrived from Ms. Savchenko Yulia, who participated in the Practical Training of Business Course (Uzbekistan-Japan Center) in fiscal 2010. It shows a local traditional dance. It can be observed while dining at the Medressa (an Islamic school) that is open to tourists. The brightly colored clothing certainly is impressive!
Replies to our greeting cards from PREX seminar participants who have returned home
“Is everyone healthy and happy? We are experiencing a hot summer in Japan…We will send pictures of memories of the Japanese summer, fireworks and the Gion Festival in Kyoto. Please give us an update on your current situations and activities since you’ve returned home.”
After PREX sent out this kind of email, we got a huge response, with many former participants sending back replies. Here we introduce just a few of them.

From Mr. Haidar Imad Syria Synthetic Business Management Training Program, Fiscal 2009 |
We are wishing for 35 degrees, which is the usual temperature here in summer. This year it’s getting higher to over 40 degrees. It even gets over 47 degrees sometimes.
Tomorrow we will be enjoying the Japan festival here in Aleppo. I’m sure I will enjoy attending and send you some pictures. I have been implementing most of the action plan that I learned about in Japan, and currently I’m arranging the information I learned during the seminar.
Being able to adopt “Kaizen” learned in Japan to his own company is a huge encouragement for PREX.
PREX feels the necessity of keeping in regular contact in order to maintain links with former participants now back in their own countries. PREX plans to continue sending the emails offering seasonal greetings.
