タイ側の様子　Thai side:

Each side prepared 2 different presentations according to the theme.

The theme was "Society in 20 years," and we were looking forward to seeing what kind of content would come out in each country,
Basically there seemed to be not very different from each other, such as bright futures and un-bright futures.
In that sense, Japan's image of an un-bright future had a different perspective.
The subtitle was set as "Excessive Diversity and Japan".
Diversity is basically a good thing, but if it goes too far, problems may arise ...

Anyway, we hope that was a valuable experience for all participants.
