【JBS】New Year’s Greeting from Secretary General

New Year Message from Secretary General of JBS

Happy New Year. I would like to express my sincere appreciation
for your kind support to JBS’s activities.

Almost two years have passed since the outbreak of the new coronavirus.
A new variant Omicron has recently appeared and spread rapidly
all over the world.

Last year, just like the year before, JBS refrained to hold all the face-to-face
events including cultural gathering and the general annual meeting.
Instead, we organized four online events such as seminars
and live tours, which many of our members participated in.

Around the end of the year, we have created an occasion for our members
to exchange personal news and special thoughts about Belgium
through messages and photos to make a booklet.
Many of you participated in it and all the members will soon receive
a copy of the booklet “JBS members’ collection of messages”.

This year, we are planning to restart face-to-face events
in a safe and secure environment.
At the same time, we would like to continue organizing online events
throughout the year.
We look forward to your participation.

At the end of this message, I wish you all good health and safety in 2022
and the JBS secretariat and myself look forward to seeing you soon.
Thank you for your continued support.

Yasuaki NURI
Secretary General
