Yangon Office

Makoto SHIRAKI (Project Director)

It has been passed one and a half year since I came Myanmar.　Although I cannot understand Myanmar language at all, I can work and live here by kind support of staffs and neighbors. It becomes a bit hard work for 67 years old man to visit schools and/or villages by long time drive. However it is my pleasure more than anything else to meet cheerful smile of school children.

Whenever I take into consideration that their cheerful smile will create the future of Myanmar, it makes me enthusiastic to my job. People in village are simple and kind and keen to betterment of educational conditions of their children. I want to continue my job as long as my health allows me to do.
