[YLP ICT: Part 5] Opening Ceremony, Visit, Train and Shop...

Opening Ceremony

I’m out of words now…
Workings with machine seem to make you runs out of vocabulary…
However I still would try my best wrote something on my trip…
Besides it been a year…
During the opening ceremony, there were representative from OIC itself besides our main sponsor Fujitsu Media Limited Okinawa as well as local representative from Okinawa…
The ceremony start with the speech from all the various organisations and end with all the young leaders start to introduce ourselves…

Okinawa Meteorological Observatory

Our first official visit was in Okinawa Meteorological Observatory…
During the visit we’re accompany by Yasumura-san, Sajima-san and Otsubo-san…
In here we’re given opportunity to learn the basic things of weather forecasting and observations using various tools such as balloons, wind and rain measurement equipment…
It not stop on the forecast and observation only but we did learned on how to make use of technology goodness in order to be able escalate warning to the citizens on natural disaster like earthquake or typhoon…

Taking Allowance, Train Training Session & Ashibinaa

After finish the visit at Okinawa Meteorological Observatory, straight away we're taken back to OIC...
The reason is because we need to withdraw our allowances...
The ATM machines instructions in Japanese and our Atuk Yasumura-san need to assist all of us...
Seeing the fact that we'll be going to Tokyo on 3rd Oct, we'll need to familiarise with Japan train system...
Although there's train service in OKA, but the scale very much different as compared to Tokyo...
However taken a piece of advice from Atuk Yasumura-san, we come into agreement to try on the OKA train service...
We depart from Omoromachi to Naha Kuko...
From Naha Kuko a.k.a airport we took a bus to go to Ashibinaa...
Ashibinaa is a place like premium outlet and offered quite numbers of brand...
Since we're not even a week here, most of us just make a little survey and window shopping while we're there....
