I don’t really know if the Israelis reading this blog are really that interested in the far-east, but I’ll try and promote this anyhow.
The far-east department at the Hebrew University will be doing an open Far-East day, with main focus on Chinese and Japanese culture. The day will take place on the 22nd of May, next week, at the Hillel House. I’ve seen Lin and Ori invest so much time in trying to make this thing happen, and I’ve heard the one 2 years ago went really well.
