Bonding with the Japanese KOTA BARU was recently invaded by samurais and Japanese taikok performers who took part in a demonstration at the state handicraft village.
The event, organised by the 21 Century Malaysia-Japan Friendship Alumni Association, was held in conjunction with a Japanese festival in Kelantan to mark the 50th anniversary of Ma-laysia-Japan diplomatic relations. Association vice president Datuk Ibrahim Mat Zain said the event was to showcase the cultural diversity of both countries. A group of taikok per- formers performed six songs to a capitivated audience. Kota Baru is a twin city of Kasoka in Japan.//Thestar ------------------------ Yahoo!
