Konbanwa…
In this report, I will share to
you about my activities on 23-24th November 2013 about journey to Hakodate.
On this journey, I along with five census member i.e. Prof. Noriyuki Tanaka,
Yoshida-san, Yajie-san, Devon-san and Yajima-san. On 23th November 2013 2 PM, I
and others met in west gate of Sapporo Station. We take Hakodate limited express
train at 4th platform.
On the way, I saw many beautiful
views which are consist of mountain, beach, resident and agriculture field. Maybe some of you still do not know what
Hakodate really is...
Many foreign looking
buildings remain in the area today. Among the most famous are the Russian
Orthodox Church, the Old British Consulate, the Chinese Memorial Hall, the
prefectural government's former branch office building and the old Hakodate
Public Hall.
Hakodate is a city and port located in Oshima Subprefecture, Hokkaido, Japan. It is the capital city of Oshima
Subprefecture. Hakodate was Japan's first city whose port was opened to foreign
trade in 1854 as a result of Convention of kanagawa,
and used to be the most important port in northern Japan. Also, the city had
been the biggest city in Hokkaido before the Great Hakodate Fire of 1934. As of
July 31, 2011, the city has an estimated population of 279,851 with 143,221 households and a population density of
412.83 persons per km² (1,069.2 persons per sq. mi.). The total area is
677.77 km2 (261.69 sq mi).
The city is now the third biggest in Hokkaido after Sapporo and Asahikawa (Wiki).
We
have dinner in restaurant near Bay area. I order lamb curry which is nice dish
from lamb plus curry. On that moment, we talk to each other with various
topics, include the question like “what dish you really miss from your country?”
Spontaneously, I had answered “bakso and pempek”.
On 25th November, I attended final
presentation by participants of ECOSUS Aqua in Hakodate Campus of Hokkaido
University. They present some points about how to solving labor problem and
increase alternative sea product beside fish and shrimp. Various comments
respond from attendances, include me that asked question to one of group presenter.
My question is how their target will be implementing in the future on comprehensive approach. The presenter
answered diplomatically and still general to respond to my question.
Thank you for read my post…
