 Hi, good afternoon, everybody. My name is Mary. And I'm currently working in MIMA office, MIMA city office, sorry. And I'm also a member of the Toxima Mountain Tree Asia Promotion Council. So I'm just starting from our geographical introduction of Nishihawa area. So Nishihawa area is actually, Nishihawa region is actually located on western Japan, as you can see from the picture. Nishihawa steep slope land agriculture system was recognized as World Agriculture Heritage Site in March 2018. The Nishihawa region has been affected by major fault in Japan and has experienced many landslides. In order to enable agriculture in the landslide area, the land has been farmed on the slope without artificial creating a level surface. In addition to producing a wide variety of agriculture products, they have also cultivated cash crops to sweet time. Sustainable family farming that has been continued for 400 years created actually every ugly culture, ugly culture, culture. And then the slide that's just showing our geography of Nishihawa area, this is just a little introduction of us. And next slide. In recent years, many tourists from both domestic and international tourists visited us. They came to see and experience the life of the farmer in Nishihawa area, placed with the old fashion farming and mountain village landscape in the developed country of Japan. Culture experiences exchanged with these local farmers helped to revitalize the region. So this picture on the slide shows you that we're just having a culture experiences with a tourist. Next slide. And also we there are various types of countryside, countryside staying at the farmer's house. First of all, there is the overnight exchange experience program called educational travel. One of the purpose is to stay with the original family in Nishihawa region. So one of the features of the program is that host family welcomed the students, not as a tourist, but also family members or relatives. While staying at the house, they experience agriculture and they cook together, engage in the culture exchanges. The host family is not for receiving the money, income, sorry, but also a sense of purpose and pride in their lives as farmers. In 2018, approximately 2,700 students visited us annually. There are about 40 farmer's houses in Nishihawa region where people can cook local dishes together and have culture experiences. So as you can see from the picture on the slide, there also rented cottage renovated from vacant farmhouse. The renovation of farmhouse cottage was supervised by Alex Carr, a researcher of eastern culture who was impressed by culture of Nishihawa region that is a part of part of Japan that he owns one of the firm house himself. So you can own this space, you can enjoy and relax and you can feel like all the time of Japan and then also you can secure your privacy at the house. Next slide. These are just an example of our tour conducting. There are also many exchanging problems in the farmers that do not involve overnight stays. So you can just see from the picture, we have like two tours. So these are like tours with local farmers. Next one. Also, our Nishihawa region have so many attractions. There are so many attractive places. You can see from the picture on the slide, this is called Udatsu Townscape. In the town of Udatsu in Wakimachi, where the traditional Japanese townscape still remains. Visitors can try kimono that is a Japanese traditional wear and you can also enjoy dye hand craft with indigo dye and make Japanese traditional umbrellas. Next one. We also in addition to experiencing exchange problem, the farmers are also focusing on making souvenir. Since process agriculture product and traditional hand craft can provide additional income for farmers, the government and see also we can help each other both the side of government and also farmers, local farmers. So we actually like supporting together to make souvenir or even like very special food by utilizing the local food. So this slide is actually showing that population of the tourist in Nishihawa area. As you can see from the graph, there will be significant decline in the exchange population due to COVID-19 in recent years. As you can see, there has been significant decline since 2020 because of COVID-19 as I mentioned. Farmers are also suffering from decline income, but this is not a very serious situation because family farming in Nishihawa region have diversified business. So we try to conduct hygiene workshop with local farmers in order to after come back, after coronavirus has finished. So this is no whole region of Nishihawa area. This is just place for area region is part of Nishihawa area. So as a conclusion in promoting sustainable tourism policy, there is in every time tendency for customer position to be stronger than that of the visitor and the host-sailor. So we want we like to conclude it over the visitor to visit our Nishihawa region has to take responsibility to consider environment and also they have to have a respect to local residents as well. And we like to seek understanding and incorporation for sustainable tourism development. This is all about our Nishihawa area. Thank you very much for listening.
