Recognition Award for Japanese Living Abroad Upon Reaching Their 100th Birthday

   On November 23, Consul General Misawa visited Kuakini Medical Center to congratulate three Japanese centenarians (Ms. Miyoko Ashikawa, Mr. Shinzo Kagawa, and Ms. Hanae Kobayashi) on reaching the age of 100. The honorees were presented with a celebratory letter and a commemorative gift to thank them for their many years of devotion to the development of society and to offer a prayer for their continued health. This year, 33 people living in Hawaii will be recognized for their longevity.
