JCC specially held a Shinkansen Handcraft Workshop on Saturday, 6th May, for children under Tasek Jurong Limited. Deputy Chief of Mission, JCC Acting Director Mr Naohiro Tsutsumi was present to welcome the children. JCC Event Team Manager Mdm Keiko Soeda introduced more about shinkansen, and guided the children through the workshop. Mr Takeshi Fukuda from the Singapore Representative Office of JR West was also present to answer any JR West and Shinkansen-related questions, and also assisted the children. During the hour long session, the children thoroughly enjoyed creating their own shinkansen paper models of Dr Yellow, which was kindly sponsored by JR West. They also received a miniature version to bring back home.
