Thank you very much.
I certainly want to say thank you very much, Mr. Ambassador, for coming before us today.
I also want to ask a bit about the national security strategy of Japan, which you highlighted in so many ways in terms of measures that both of our countries are taking to enhance security co-operation. Thank you for that.
Maybe I'll follow up on part of the outline in the national security strategy of Japan from December 2022. I'm thinking about the strategy on diplomatic efforts and the participation of Japan in people-to-people and cultural exchanges.
What are some of the outcomes of Japan's efforts regarding participation in people-to-people and cultural exchanges that you could highlight for us this evening?
