Tokyo Korean Junior and Senior High School

Tokyo Korean Middle and High School (東京朝鮮中高級学校, Tōkyō Chōsen Chūkōkyūgakkō; Korean: 도꾜조선중고급학교; Hanja: 東京朝鮮中高級學校; MR: Tokkyo Chosŏn Chunggogŭp Hakkyo) is a North Korea-aligned Korean international school in Jūjōdai (十条台), Kita-ku, Tokyo. As of 2013 it was one of ten North Korean-aligned high schools located in Japan. As of that year, Shin Gil-ung serves as the school's principal. It operates under the Chongryon. In 2014, Isabel Reynolds of Bloomberg News described the school as "large and relatively prosperous" compared to other North Korean international schools in Japan. History Historically the school received funding from the North Korean government and a six million yen ($63,000 US in 2013) subsidy every year from the Japanese government. Around 2011 the Japanese government made North Korea-aligned schools ineligible for tuition waivers. In 2013 the Japanese government announced that this school would no longer get subsidies. By that time funding from the North Korean government had sharply declined. Facility The school uses gray buildings, one of which includes a clock. Isabel Reynolds of Bloomberg stated that the physical appearance of the school is similar to that of domestic Japanese schools. Curriculum The school's curriculum is similar to that of most Japanese senior high schools. Modern history classes have their own course materials, while other classes use Korean translations of Japanese textbooks. Many female students take dance classes using Korean styles. Students in their senior (final) year take trips to North Korea. In 2014 principal Shin Gil-ung stated "It’s up to the students to decide whether they support that political system. We avoid telling them that everything North Korea does is right." Operations The school uses the Korean language in its official notices, and the school discourages its students from speaking Japanese while on school grounds. As of 2013 all classrooms have photographs of Kim Il-sung and Kim Jong-il. Female students and teachers wear chima jeogori. The school serves Korean foods in its cafeteria. As of 2013 80% of the school's costs come from tuition and other expenses from the parents of the students. Student body As of 2013 the school had 650 students. As of 2014 about 40% of the students who graduate from this school attend universities. The school's peak enrollment was in the late 1960s, with 2,300 students.

Departments Services for international patients According to a 2017 news article, approximately five per cent of the hospital's patients are non-Japanese. This is the highest proportion among Tokyo metropolitan hospitals. In March 2017, it was decided to formally classify Tokyo Metropolitan Hiroo Hospital as a hospital set up to handle patients from other countries, becoming the 21st in Japan with such an designation, called the "Japan Medical Services Accreditation for International Patients", or JMIP. The hospital takes a "welcoming and flexible approach" to non-Japanese-speaking patients, and employs medical language interpreters (speaking English and Chinese) as well as a medical coordinator for international patients. Aside from employing interpreters with medical training, the hospital also publishes informational booklets, forms, and other documents in foreign languages. It also has graphic interpretation tools for English, Chinese, Korean, Spanish, Portuguese, Thai, Russian, Vietnamese, Tagalog, and French. The internationalisation efforts were made as part of a push to improve services for non-Japanese patients at Tokyo hospitals ahead of the 2020 Olympic Games.

Sophia University

Sophia University (上智大学?, Jōchi Daigaku) è un'università privata di ricerca con sede in Giappone e campus principale collocato vicino alla stazione di Yotsuya, in un quartiere di Tokyo chiamato Chiyoda. È una delle migliori università giapponesi ed è rinomata per il suo ambiente internazionale. Prende il nome dal greco Sophia, "Sapienza". L'equivalente titolo giapponese, Jōchi Daigaku, letteralmente significa "Università della Sapienza Superiore". L'università sottolinea l'insegnamento delle lingue ed è nota per l'alto numero di iscrizioni di studenti internazionali. Ha inoltre un programma di scambio di studenti con diverse università estere, tra cui la University of California e la Pace University di New York. L'università era inizialmente riservata al solo componente maschile, ma attualmente ammette anche quello femminile; la proporzione tra uomini e donne è ora parificata. Gli alumni dell'università vengono chiamati "Sophians" e includono il 79º Primo Ministro giapponese, Morihiro Hosokawa, una quantità di politici correntemente parte della Dieta Nazionale, e professori di istituti accademici, tra i quali l'Università Imperiale di Tokyo e la Yale University. Dal 2008, è stato avviato un Programma di Global Leadership per studenti di 4 università gesuite dell'Asia orientale: l'Università Ateneo de Manila nelle Filippine, Università Cattolica Fu Jen a Taiwan, Sogang University nella Corea del Sud e la Sophia University in Giappone, che condividono lo stesso spirito cattolico. Storia La Sophia University fu fondata dai gesuiti nel 1913. Fu la prima università in Giappone che realizzava i desideri di San Francesco Saverio, il quale era arrivato in Giappone nel 1549 per portare il Cristianesimo. Fu inaugurata con le facoltà di Letteratura tedesca, Filosofia e Commercio, guidate dal fondatore Hermann Hoffmann (1864-1937) che fu anche il primo presidente dell'istituto. Da allora, la Sophia University ha continuato a crescere, aumentando il numero di facoltà, accademici e studenti, oltre a promuovere il suo aspetto internazionale con l'organizzazione di programmi di scambio. Dal 1975 fino al 1981 fu guidata da un rettore italiano: Padre Giuseppe Pittau, primo straniero a ricoprire tale incarico. Con l'inaugurazione della Facoltà di Arti Liberali nel 2006, la Sophia University attualmente gestisce 27 dipartimenti in otto facoltà. Il presidente corrente (2012) è Yoshiaki Ishizawa. Padre Toshiaki Koso detiene invece l'incarico di Direttore del Consiglio di Amministrazione.

Itabashi Bridge

Itabashi Bridge (板橋, Itabashi) (literally, "plank bridge") is a bridge spanning the Shakujii River in Nakajuku, Itabashi, Tokyo, Japan. It is widely regarded as the origin of the name of Itabashi ("plank bridge"), from which Itabashi Ward takes its name. Overview The bridge is located along the route of the historic Nakasendō, one of the five major highways of the Edo period. The surrounding area is known for rows of cherry blossom trees along the Shakujii River, and the site has been selected as one of the "Itabashi Ten Views" (板橋十景). History A wooden bridge is believed to have existed at this location since at least the medieval period, and references to "Itabashi" appear in historical sources. According to local historical accounts, the name derives from a simple plank bridge (板橋) that once crossed the river. During the Edo period, the bridge formed part of the Nakasendō route and developed as a crossing point within the post town of Itabashi. References
