Japanese liner Fuji Maru, the cruise that promotes camaraderie between Japanese and ASEAN youths, is bringing in 350 youth ambassadors from ASEAN countries. They are participants to the 36th Ship for Southeast Asia Youth Program (SSEAYP).
Launched in January 1974, SSEAYP seeks to broaden the youths’ global perspectives, as well as strengthen their motivations and abilities in international cooperation by participating in discussions, introductions of each country and various exchange activities both onboard the friendship cruise and in countries it visits.
SSEAYP is sponsored and carried out annually by the Government of Japan with the active participation of the Southeast Asian countries. (PIA)
