“The reason why I came here is that I want to get to know as many people as possible here in Dumaguete. And it is my pleasant surprise that there are so many Japanese students studying here…I have heard that Silliman University is one of the best universities in the Philippines, so I’m proud that so many students are studying in [a] very prestigious, very excellent university,” said Consul General Yamaji.
