（12月18日（土）17:00 於：イオンモール１）
皆様、こんにちは。本日は、カンボジア日本人会主催「ジャパンフェア」にご参加いただき誠にありがとうございます。
この「ジャパンフェア」は、新型コロナウイルス感染拡大の影響を受けた在留邦人コミュニティーに元気を与えようと、多くの日本人のご協力をいただき開催するものです。今日明日開催されますイオンでのオフラインイベントだけにとどまらず、感染予防のためにオンラインでの様々な活動も含め、計画しているものです。
カンボジア政府の推奨するウィズコロナ、ニューノーマルの生活モデルの中で、コロナ禍でご苦労されている多くの日本人が協力するこの一連のイベントが、今までの苦労を吹き飛ばす一助となればと期待しております。またそれとともに、多くのカンボジア人の皆さんに、日本の文化や食事などを知っていただく、交流の促進の機会になることも期待しております。
最後に、ジャパンフェア開催にあたり、ご協力いただきました多くの皆様に御礼申し上げると共に、来たる2022年が皆様にとってコロナに打ち勝った素晴らしい一年になりますように祈念して、挨拶とさせていただきます。
Opening Ceremony of “Japan Fair” organized by the Japanese Association in Cambodia
(Saturday, December 18, 17:00 at AEON MALL 1)
Hello (Good evening?), everyone. Hello everyone. Thank you very much for participating in the Japan Fair organized by the Japanese Association in Cambodia today.
This “Japan Fair” is held with the cooperation of many Japanese people in order to cheer up the Japanese community affected by the spread of the new coronavirus infection. The event is not limited to the offline event at AEON, which will be held today and tomorrow, but is also planned to include various online activities to help prevent infection.
We hope that this series of events, in which many Japanese people who are suffering from COVID disease will cooperate with us in the With COVID, New Normal model of living recommended by the Cambodian government, will help blow away the hardships we have been experiencing. At the same time, I hope that these events will provide an opportunity for many Cambodians to learn about Japanese culture and food, and promote exchange.
I would like to introduce some of today’s events. The Japanese Association is preparing a booth to sell yukata, a traditional Japanese costume. We will also provide support for dressing up. With the support of a kimono company, the price is only $10, so you can enjoy the Japan Fair in yukata, take a commemorative photo under the Torii gate, or eat fresh tuna directly from Japan. We hope you will consider this way of enjoying the fair.
In closing, I would like to thank all of you for your cooperation in organizing the Japan Fair, and I wish you all a wonderful year in 2022, a year in which we can overcome COVID.
