International Relations & Sister City Program

“Though this partnership is built upon the foundation of our two nations’ history of cooperation, it is my sincere hope that we can reimagine the ways in which we work together; the manner in which we build opportunities for both the people of Edogawa and Honolulu – to create mutually beneficial exchanges to the betterment of our individual Cities, but for our collective humanity.”
