  This year we attended the program and provided updated information for two days. After that we made a group photo for memory ^^ Not only we have so many new friends, but also gain so many insights from what’s happening in Africa. What a progress!

For the program this year, we had this young man from Japan joined us, after that we went out for a dinner. I received an insightful information regarding accessibility in Tokyo, a much more updated version than my last visit two years ago.

The 15 years of program was fund by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), and held by the Disabled Peoples’ International (DPI). Every year there would from participants from many friends around the world. The training course began from Japan and then Bangkok. Thailand, this year is the third year that we join the program, welcoming guests. Today we brought our new friends to have a tour around Bangkok. We travelled to the old and new public transport systems to give them a glimpse of how the system in Bangkok look like.

At the Suwannaphum International Airport, I was waiting to say good bye the other friends. Jeab messaged me that they’re heading to the airport. Surprisingly that I see Khun Yupa & her family (and with a little cute girl & boy + MiyamotoSan!!). Have a great trip back!
