The Sakura Science Program (SSP) at Chiba University was my first experience in Japan. It allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of the educational environment, culture, and people of Japan. I am forever grateful to Professor Ahn Chang-Jun and Professor Cha Jae-sang of Chiba University for their continuous support in helping me apply for the SSP program. Equally valuable to me was the network of friends I made during the SSP program, whom I cherish and stay in touch with whenever possible. I always feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to build such an incredible network through the Sakura Science Program. I will strive to serve as a bridge to promote educational collaboration between Vietnam and Japan. I hope to visit Japan again in the near future.
