| Ms. Miho GODA | China (Hong Kong) | Throughout my undergraduate years to my time as a doctoral student, I participated in programs at the National University of Singapore and conducted research on Chinese communities in Singapore. Currently, I work for both the Department of History and Department of Japanese Studies at Chinese University of Hong Kong. Also, I am researching the support provided in Chinese communities (especially Hong Kong) for Children with High Functioning Pervasive Departmental Disorder. |
| Mr. MUKHAMAD Subkhan | Indonesia | I came to Japan in 2006 to study in the Department of Applied Science for Integrated System Engineering at Kyushu Institute of Technology’s graduate school. I am a student as well as a father with two children. Consequently, I am carrying out household chores and child-rearing activities. In the hope that people in Japan will learn much more about Indonesia, I am actively engaged in community interaction activities. |
| Ms. HONG Mi Ok | South Korea | In 1992, I began working as a civil servant in Incheon City. From 2008 to 2010, I worked at the International Affairs Department in Kitakyushu City, under a staff exchange program between the sister cities of Incheon and Kitakyushu. Currently, I am busy working as a civil servant in Incheon City and also as a mother with two children. While it is difficult to strike a balance between my career and household chores, I hope that I can fully work on both and enjoy myself. |
| Ms. CHEOW Puei Kuen | Malaysia | After graduating from The University of Science Malaysia in the field of interior design, I started my life as a foreign student in Tokyo, Japan to continue my studies, hoping to contribute and dedicate myself to education field in the future. I obtained my master degree in architecture and am currently a Ph.D. student in the same university, conducting research on environment-behavioral studies. It was a special chance for me to get to know KFAW during my visit to Kitakyushu for an academic conference. I participated as one of the 21st KFAW foreign correspondents. |
