Mr. HIRAOKA Shu

I have stayed in Lao PDR for 4 weeks as part of my first year master’s CAMPUS Asia Short Term Study Program. For a total of 5 days, our group conducted an intensive lecture course at the National University of Laos (NUOL). During our time of the lectures, we were able to observe the current domestic relations within Lao PDR, based on various topics such as economic development, greening, and supply chain. Being able to actively discuss and complete challenges with students from Japan, Korea, and China has been an indispensable opportunity. After the second week, we conducted internship at the Ministry of Education and Sports. We were able to visit multiple international institutions, and exchange valuable insights regarding the current state and challenges within the country from multiple viewpoints. Overall, I believe that the experience I had in the 4 weeks will be fundamental in my future research.
