5th OKINAWA INTERNATIONAL MOVIE FESTIVAL

Chairman, Taiwan Land Development Ltd.

Tao Yuan Hsien

Very shortly, the highly anticipated Okinawa International Movie Festival will open again for this year. We will all be able to see some wonderful films from around the world, which will introduce us to the people, cultures and landscapes of each distinct region. Also, unique to the Okinawa International Movie Festival, we have also scheduled a number of fun and entertaining events. One of these is the “Chura-ii GIRLS UP! Stage”, a fashion show which was held for the first time last year. Organizers Yoshimoto Kogyo have established a branch office in Taiwan, to introduce the people of Taiwan to Japanese entertainment content such as movies, and TV drama and variety programs, and they have been instrumental in promoting cultural exchange between Japan and Taiwan. I am deeply honored to be participating in the 5th Okinawa International Movie Festival. It will be my pleasure to share with everyone in the joy of “The Once in a Lifetime Laugh&Peace”. It is also my hope that you will all be happy and keep smiling forever.
