Japanese Princess Kako watched a dance event for people with disabilities held at Tokyo Gymnasium on Sunday. At the beginning of the event, the princess, the second daughter of Crown Prince Akishino and Crown Princess Kiko, waved to performers with a smile, with pompoms in her hands, to the music of “Matsuken Samba II,” and applauded after the song ended.
Their Majesties are deeply saddened by the fact that more than 3,000 people have been left behind in isolated villages, some have died due to the disaster, and we are concerned about the deterioration of the health of those evacuated due to the outbreak of infectious diseases. It means that it is being done.
Japanese Princess Kako attended the 40th national high school sign language speech contest held in Tokyo on Sunday.
This is the second time that Princess Kako has attended the contest on her own.
“I strongly hope that a society where everyone can have a wider range of choices will be created,” the princess, the second daughter of Crown Prince Akishino and Crown Princess Kiko, said using sign language. Princess Kako gave applause to each of the 10 high school students who joined the event.
This is the second time that Princess Kako has attended the contest on her own.
Princess Kako, the second daughter of Crown Prince Akishino and Crown Princess Kiko, attended the Doremifa Dance Concert in Tokyo on Monday 17th July.
This was the fourth time that Kako attended the event, which was organized by a Tokyo-based non-profit organization dedicated to the welfare of people with disabilities, inviting people with disabilities and their families as spectators.
Princess Kako is often in attendance at events involving people with disabilities in Japan. In September in Kurayoshi, Tottori Prefecture, Princess Kako gave a speech in sign language at an acting and dance competition that incorporates sign language.
In addition, she attended events including for the Japanese Breast Cancer Society and sports for disabled athletes.
The Emperor of Japan said:
“I would like to make this address in the hope that, through Disability Week, people’s understanding of and interest in disability and people with disabilities will further expand and that a truly ‘symbiotic society’ will be realised.”
The Emperor and Empress of Japan received explanations about the situation and challenges faced by facilities from representatives of organizations that make up welfare facilities for the disabled regarding the effects of the new coronavirus continue.
