Message from president

「Communicate ・ Connect」

There are many non-Japanese speakers in Bingo area/eastern part of Hiroshima prefecture. They are our community members as well as us. In order to make our community better, we begin to notice our needs to rebuild a connection of fellow-residents.
We think we should start with what we can do, and so we organized Bingo Japanese Multilingual Support Center named “BUILD.”
The aim is support language and culture, by working on Japanese people, with different culture and languages, to make community easy and better to live.
To make “Communicate ・ Connect” our theme, we would like to continue to work steadily for more people to live in peace.

President Ms. Hiroko Miyano
