PHNOM PENH, April 13 (Xinhua) -- A Cambodian delegation of 22 people, with 20 high school students, one government official and one teacher, departed here on Monday for a 10-day trip of social study in Japan.
This has been the seventh delegation of its kind under the Japan-East Asia Network of Exchange for Students and Youths (JENESYS) Program, according to a press release of the Embassy of Japan.
During their visit to Japan, the students will visit sites mainly related to social and cultural affairs, as well as local communities, it said.
They will participate in exchange events with Japanese youths and citizens, including home-stays, school visits, and workshop, it said.
Different from the previous delegations, the seventh one will join the delegations from nine other ASEAN (the Association of Southeast Asian Nations) countries during their visit.
The 10 countries' participants will be divided into 10 groups and each group is a mixture of students from the 10 countries, said the press release, adding that they are thus expected to enhance their friendship and mutual understanding.
Last year, 160 Cambodian youths visited Japan under the JENESYS Program, which was one of the memorable events for the 55th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Cambodia and Japan.
