Consulate Activities

　　　On November 3, the Consulate General and the Japan Hawaii Travel Association (JHTA) co-hosted a reception at the Official Residence to present a short lecture on safety measures related to natural disasters in Hawaii. In December of 2015, the Japanese Government led an initiative in the General Assembly of the United Nations to designate November 5 as World Tsunami Awareness Day. This year, the Consulate welcomed Mr. Vern Miyagi, Administrator of the Hawaii Emergency Management Agency (HEMA), to provide a lecture and Q&A session related to tsunami awareness.
