This coming Wednesday from 10:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. the annual Asia-Pacific Festival and Charity Bazaar is scheduled to be held in the ANA Hotel, Tokyo.

More than 20 Asian and Pacific countries will set up booths of their own handicrafts, accessories and jewelry, foods and homemade baked goods. Traditional dances of the region will be shown.

The Japan booth this year gives prominence to Kagawa Prefecture and its specialties. As always, bazaar proceeds will be channeled toward welfare and disaster relief in the member countries of the Asia-Pacific Ladies Friendship Society.
