AJC launches website dedicated to 50th year of Asean-Japan friendship, cooperation

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 22 — The Asean-Japan Centre (AJC) has launched a special website dedicated to the 50th Year of Asean-Japan Friendship and Cooperation to celebrate the anniversary in 2023.

AJC said in a statement that the website is primarily in the Japanese language, while automatic translation in 12 major languages spoken in the Asean Member States is also available.

In 2023, commemorative events for the 50th Year of Asean-Japan Friendship and Cooperation will be held in the Asean Member States and Japan throughout the year.

“The governments of Asean and Japan will accredit a wide range of events taking place in the Asean Member States or Japan.

“These authorised events will be permitted to use the official logo and catchphrase of the 50th Year of Asean-Japan Friendship and Cooperation, and their information will be available on the website’s event calendar,” it said.

In addition to introducing these commemorative events, the website also features “The People of Asean-Japan” (updated monthly), which introduces the people who are contributing to connecting and deepening the mutual understanding among the people of the Asean Member States and Japan.

The “Happy Asean-Japan 50!” (coming soon) to share congratulatory photo messages from various people will also be featured in the website.

A series of campaigns, titled ‘GOLDEN BRIDGE’ for the people of the Asean member-states and Japan to celebrate the anniversary together, will also be conducted.
