Meeting with Itabashi City

H.E. Dato’ Ahmad Rozian, Ambassador-designate of Malaysia to Japan, visited Itabashi City Hall today, where he was warmly welcomed by Mr. Takeshi Sakamoto, Mayor of Itabashi City. Mr Sakamoto briefed Dato’ Ahmad Rozian on the long-standing friendship between Itabashi City and Pulau Pinang which dated back to 1994, cemented by the annual visit of selected junior high students to Pulau Pinang under the Itabashi Junior Ambassador Program. Itabashi City has also pursued cooperation with Kuala Lumpur City in SDG-related programmes. Both sides expressed their shared hope that this enduring friendship will continue to flourish in the years ahead, creating more opportunities for Itabashi City and cities in Malaysia to learn from one another, share experiences and further strengthen people-to-people ties.
