00:00.610 --> 00:03.060
- [Nathan] Marine Corps Air
Station Iwakuni residents

00:03.060 --> 00:04.900
visited Tsuzu Elementary School

00:04.900 --> 00:06.950
for the Iwakuni Cultural Exchange

00:06.950 --> 00:09.990
with Marine Corps Community
Services Cultural Adaptation.

00:09.990 --> 00:13.380
Nobawaki Miahi, the principal
of Tsuzu Elementary School,

00:13.380 --> 00:15.500
says it's good for Japanese and Americans

00:15.500 --> 00:17.016
to exchange cultures.

00:17.016 --> 00:20.212
(speaks in foreign language)

00:20.212 --> 00:22.280
- [Translator] Iwakuni has the air station

00:22.280 --> 00:25.140
and there are many
Americans, including Japanese

00:25.140 --> 00:27.033
or junior high school students.

00:29.170 --> 00:31.250
I would like to use this opportunity

00:31.250 --> 00:33.470
to have the children
interact with each other

00:33.470 --> 00:36.380
so that American people
know Japanese culture

00:36.380 --> 00:38.773
and Japanese people know American culture.

00:41.030 --> 00:43.913
I think it is very useful
for the children's future.
