- Commemorative events will promote cooperation in areas such as culture, sports, education, tourism, economics, science
TOKYO: Saudi Arabia and Japan will celebrate 70 years of diplomatic relations in 2025, and Japan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs is endorsing a wide range of commemorative events to be held both in Japan and the Kingdom.
A commemorative logo has been released, which features a combination of a palm tree, a symbol of Saudi Arabia, and cherry blossoms, a flower synonymous with Japan.
Japan’s foreign ministry on Monday issued guidelines for next year’s celebratory events under its purview.
The guidelines state that events should aim to deepen mutual understanding, and promote cooperation between Japan and Saudi Arabia, particularly in areas such as culture, art, sports, education, tourism, economics, and science, and should take place during, or close to, 2025.
Anyone wishing to organize an event can obtain further information from the Second Middle East Division of Japan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Embassy of Japan in Saudi Arabia, or Consulate-General in Jeddah.
Only events that are approved will be able to use the official logo.
