Mary Nakada News
Ms. Nakada’s article from Okinawa Times (12/21/06, p.26 Society)
To complete the WUB program.
Ms. Mary Nakada, a first scholar offered by the Worldwide Uchinanchu Business Association (WUB), completed five-month program at East-West Center at Hawaii, US.
Ms. Nakada is a third generation Okinawa descendant, and she teaches photography at an art university in Peru. She learned difficult issues and problems around the world with 44 participants from 28 countries in EWC. She remarked, “I could broaden my horizons to expose to different viewpoints and ways of thinking.” WUB is presently recruiting a second scholar. Mr. Robert Nakasone, a founder of WUB, is seeking for applicants. He said, “I would like to support young people to be a cosmopolitan.”
