For 35 years, Montana has enjoyed a “sister state” relationship with the prefecture Kumamoto, Japan. Few Montanans know Kumamoto as well as award-winning journalist and Japan Friendship Club President, Ian Marquand. Join Ian as he shares the special character of Kumamoto — Its connection with former Ambassador Mike Mansfield, its natural beauty, its cultural heritage, and its charming modern mascot Kumamon.  He’ll also celebrate the unique friendship Kumamoto offers to Montana.
