Lives of the Nikkei scholarship ‘Dream Come True Project’ students~Edgar Tokashiki
Why did you decide to study in Japan?
Because Japan is one of the biggest economies of the world and have several industries were they are at the top.
How was your life in Japan?
Living in Japan was incredible, I had one of the best times of my life I learned a lot culturally and professionally.
If you are going to Japan try to learn as much Japanese as possible beforehand or while you are there. The Nikkei scholarship is the best scholarship for what I know is not only about the allowance is about being part of a family.
Tell us about your past study or research.
I studied a Master in business administration in international management.
Did your consciousness as a Nikkei change in any way through studying in Japan?
Yes it did change. Before going to japan I think felt that with time I was losing more and more the Nikkei part of me, gladly I went to Japan to study and learn much more about Japanese culture and start to understand more things about myself.
Tell us about your plan after graduation.
I want to start an environmental project and I’m looking for ways to finance it at early stage.
