... Next year marks the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic ties between out two countries, and the Japan-Tunisia Friendship Association would like to contribute in anyway possible to give significance to this commemorable year. In addition, 2006 marks the 20th anniversary of our association. Therefore, the upcoming year or two is an important turning point for our association. A concert of Arabian classical music, "Le Club Bachraf", hosted by Professor Matsuda of Tama Art University is currently being planned for June 18 of this year, by involved parties. This orchestra, consisting of three women, has experience performing in many Arab countries, and I have heard that their performance in Tunisia in January 2001 had captured the hearts of the people of Tunisia. This June's performance is a precursor to the 50th Anniversary celebratory events next year, and is expected to be held by the Japan-Tunisia Friendship Association. Furthermore, we hope to use this opportunity to invigorate association activities, such as by enriching our newsletter. Cooperation from our readers is greatly appreciated, as well....
