Hey Guys My name is Aki Kijima and I am studying Commerce Law at Mac Uni. I am Japanese Australian and I was previously the PR manager of JAM (Japanese at Macquarie) A soceity for Japanese Students at Mac uni, which died down in 2008.
In 2009 i want to start a new society for Japanese Students, but to do so i realy need the support of you, my fellow Japanese students.
My aims for JAM 2009
1.AS a networking sight for Japanese students to meet other Japanese students
2.To act as a support service for Japanese Students, to help with any difficulties they may be having
3.To assist local students, who wish to learn more about Japanese culture-or who wish to go to Japan on exchange
4.A chance for japanese students to meet native speaking students, and to develop new friendships 5. To have fun, organise activities, BBQs excursions, pub nights etc so you can enjoy your stay in Australia more
WHAT I DONT WANT THE NEW JAM TO BECOME 1. A new Anime society, there is already one, if you are only after manga, then its probably not for you 2. A place for sleazy guys to try to pick up Japanese girls-NO NAMPA !!
THE NEW JAM will be a JAPANESE focused society for Japanese students, and local students (of course) who are genuinely interested in learning Japanese
