AUT Japanese department held a morning tea on 14 June to welcome the new Consul, Sukeno san to his post at the Consulate General of Japan, Auckland, and to farewell Hayasaka san at the end of his two year post. Hayasaka san will be sorely missed for all the work he has done for Japanese language education and we look forward to working with Sukeno san after he settles in to his new life in New Zealand.
