Japan extends media invitation programme to Bernama ...

The Japanese Embassy has invited Bernama to send a reporter for a week-long assignment to Japan in February.
About 10 journalists from various countries would participate in the Media Invitation Programme occasionally conducted by Japan’s Foreign Affairs Ministry.
Apart from Tokyo, the upcoming programme with the theme Japanese security policy would take participants to Okinawa and Ishigaki islands.
The participants are required to write three articles relating to the media tour including one to be shared on the ministry website.
The invitation was conveyed by the Japanese Embassy Culture and Information Section Technical Advisor Simon Kubota during his visit to Bernama International News Service today.
He was accompanied by the embassy’s Special Assistant for Press and Public Relations Ham Shu Ying.
Kubota, who started his stint in Malaysia five months ago, took the opportunity to introduce himself to Deputy Editor in Chief for International Service Ahmad Zukiman Zain and Editor Azeman Ariffin during the visit.
The meeting had enabled Kubota to gain a better understanding of Bernama with the view of enhancing the cooperation between the embassy and the news agency.
