AHI STUDY TOUR 2018
A Japanese team with 17 pax spent 10 days with us and visited
Polpithigama with Praja Sahayogitha, Kandy with HDO and Negombo with Sri
Vimukthi which all sites were facilitated by NAFSO/ AHI. The main aim of them
to learn our culture, life struggles, daily routine and our people.
Some times we feel proud as our people are so hospitable, generous and
kind to visitors than any other nation. All the pax appreciated their hosts
families and the learning through exchanges though there was a communication gaps some occasions. Importantly,
Takahiro Nakashima, of the Japanese team leader of AHI said, “Almost all our
expectations were met. Our team is happy and we want to continue similar type
of visits 3 more years”.
One of a host family member of Negombo, shared with me at the farewell party held Wednesday night, said “this was an excellent experience for me and my family. Nabe San became my family member and also long lasting friend of mine. I thank you all for giving this opportunity.
The major part of the credit should goes to the program organizers of Takahiro Nakashima of AHI, Sanjeewa Sampath of PSS, S. Sivapragasam of HDO, Suba Shini of SVFWO & Community Tourism program coordinator Nuwan Pradeep of NAFSO.
