Okayama University held the online information sessions on Study in
Japan from Cambodia and Laos for Japanese universities and educational
institutions as part of the Study in Japan Global Network Project in
ASEAN commissioned by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports,
Science and Technology (MEXT), Japan. The purpose of these sessions is
to promote the acceptance of international students from Cambodia and
Laos to universities and educational institutions in Japan including
Okayama University by sharing the local information, educational
situation in Cambodia and Laos as well as the recent status and trend of
Study in Japan from these countries.
The session on Cambodia was started with an introduction of Study in
Japan Global Network Project in ASEAN by Prof. KADOTA Isao, Project
Director/Professor, Graduate School of Natural Science and Technology,
Okayama University. After the introduction, educational situation in
Cambodia and expectation to Japanese universities was addressed by H.E.
Dr. San Vathana, Undersecretary of State, Ministry of Education, Youth
and Sport, Cambodia, followed by Study in Japan trend from Cambodia by
Dr.Vuthy Monyrath, Study in Japan Associate Coordinator, Okayama
University. Then we had a presentation on a track record and career path
of MEXT scholarship applicants and scholars by Mr. IZUMI Masayuki,
Second Secretary, Embassy of Japan in Cambodia. The final presentation
was about an outline of JICA training program by Ms. TOKUGAWA Shiori,
Representative, JICA Cambodia Office. Lastly, there was a closing
remarks by Mr. IZAKI Hiroshi, Chief Advisor, Cambodia Japan Cooperation
Center (CJCC).
While the session on Laos, attractivity and educational situation in
Laos was presented by Prof. SUZUKI Motoyoshi, Project Professor, Okayama
University. Then Mr. NISHIMURA Yuki, Third Secretary, Embassy of Japan
in Laos, made a presentation on a track record and career path of MEXT

outline of JICA training program by Ms. NUKATA Sena, Representative,
JICA Laos Office. To close the session, Dr.Phonekeo Chanthamaly,
Director, Lao Japan Institute (LJI), made a closing remarks.
Through the Q&A sessions, we could observe high level of interest
and motivation on accepting international students from Cambodia and
Laos. Some of the questions were “Which faculty is the most popular?”,
“What’s the education level of high school and university students
like?”, “What’s the trend of MEXT scholarship applicants?”.
Although this was the very first attempt for us to organize this kind of
information sessions on Study in Japan from Cambodia and Laos, there
were 43 participants from 24 universities and educational institutions
for Cambodia session. Whereas 38 representatives from 25 institutions
and for Laos session.
The number of international students from Cambodia and Laos has been
increasing every year and this trend seems to be continued in the
future. The project is promoting Study in Japan from ASEAN including
Cambodia and Laos as well as continuing to sharing beneficial
information with universities and educational institutions in Japan.
