On 30 January, SGI youth representatives from South Korea, Japan, India and Thailand visited Soka International School Malaysia (SISM) for an exchange transcending national borders.

The exchange opened with a video showcasing SISM campus life, followed by an energetic hip-hop performance by the student dance team that instantly ignited the atmosphere.

SISM principal Dr Wendy Yee introduced the school and expressed her hope that the exchange would deepen connections among youth from different countries, enhance understanding of the school’s philosophy, and inspire everyone to work together for world peace.
