Presidents' Message

Message of the JUAAB President

First I want to thanks the members of JUAAB for giving me an opportunity to serve as president. This organization is special in it’s activities that not only allows friendship to be created within the members but also between Bangladesh and Japan.

I am following the footsteps of some great and dedicated members JUAAB. This organization was formed back in 2000 by individuals who were graduate from Japanese Universities and were motivated and persistent in pursuing a goal of success for the association. I am intend to keep that tradition going.

After the formation of JUAAB, it started its activities in a rental office at Dhanmondi, then to Eastern plaza, Panthopoth and to farmgate. JUAAB is now proud to have it’s own permanent floor space of 4000 square feet in a modern building at Indira Road near to Metro rail station of Farmgate. JUAAB also have 1138 square feet space at 5 th floor of Al-Amin Aopon heights at Shaymoli, Dhaka which is rented to an organization.

Next two years comes as challenge for myself and all CE members as we have to continue to develop and improve certifications. That reflect JUAAB are beneficial to our members. I am excited about the opportunity to give something back to our membership.

I believe like me all other EC members will take challenge to increase the number of members. With that said we need to bring some new Japanese university graduates into the association and that will starts at the institution level.

If any member needs any help or want to give ideas for the benefit of JUAAB my door is always open (so to speak) to discuss.

Inter personal networking is an important part of our association. This association has a wealth of knowledge. I believe when the knowledge will combine with the networking opportunities will create which will be priceless.

Ongoing programs will continue as before. I am planning to make the language course more effective by recruiting experienced teacher. N3 level language course will start from January 2024. We are going to make a MOU(memorandum of understanding) with AIUB (American International University) to use their space to conduct JLPT exam in an international standard.

Besides the above activities, JUAAB is going to start Bengali speech contest for Japanese nationals. Ikebana and Origami demonstration, Japanese tea ceremony and Japanese film show under newly established JUAAB-Japan Cultural Center (JJCC). I with all EC members will conduct seminar in different Polytechnic institute to inform them about job opportunities in Japan as skill worker by learning Japanese language.

I wish to put a footstep by purchasing a land for establishing our great dream i.e. JUAAB University.

I am also very much thankful to His Excellency Mr. Iwama Kiminori – The ambassador of Japan to Bangladesh for his generous support. I am also thankful to officials of Japanese embassy for their continuous support in different programs of JUAAB. I am grateful to JUAAB advisory council for their valuable support regarding different issues and to the election commission for conducting an acceptable election. Finally I congratulate our newly elected EC members and wish to work in hand to hand for the best of JUAAB.
