Message from Consul General of Japan

Los Angeles, CA 90071

Congratulations to another successful year for the Japan Expo. 

The Japan Expo is one of the largest annual Japan-related events in Southern California. What makes this expo so unique is that not only does it present the best and newest things from Japan but it also incorporates some of the traditional culture of Japan. It is a reputable effort to bring out such multi-faceted elements of one country under one roof. 

With this broad base, Japan Expo has shown marvelous achievements in appealing to a large audience, presenting a dynamic expo and creating one of the best environments for cross cultural exchange. 

This year’s expo promises to be another excellent chance for Southern Californians to enjoy a taste of Japanese culture without traveling any further than Los Angeles. 

My heartfelt best wishes to the organizers of the Japan Expo for another successful year.  

Sincerely, 

Masaharu Kohno
Consul General of Japan
