INDONESIA IS IMPORTANT TO JAPAN, SAYS ENVOY
Padang, W Sumatra, Oct 29 (ANTARA)- Japanese ambassador to Indonesia Shiojiri Kojiro said that Indonesia is an important country to Japan because both nations prioritize children's education.
The Japanese envoy made the remarks when presenting his government citation to Bung Hatta university (UBH) in Padang, capital of West Sumatra province on Wednesday.
UBH received the citation based on the Japanese appreciation for the university's great contributions in enhancing the two countries' relations particularly in education, letters and culture.
In addition, the two countries have never cornered other nations.
With such similarities, Kojiro said he was happy to become Japanese ambassador to Indonesia, not to mention that Indonesia is an important country to Japan due in view of its substantial minerals and human resources.
The university is named after Bung Hatta, Indonesia's first vice president.
