Thank you for coming to Japan, for getting to know Japan, and for liking Japan and Japanese people! We Japanese will work harder so that people around the world will say that Japan is a wonderful country. We will continue to be faithful. We are all human beings living on the earth. It doesn't matter what color our skin is or what country we were born in, Let's forget about past conflicts in every country and people. We should eliminate discrimination, prejudice and hatred from the face of this earth. I hope that all people will be considerate of others and help each other without hesitation. I hope that one day such a day will come. This is the spirit of the Japanese people If I were to express this spirit in words "WA WO MOTTE TOUTOSHITONASU". I would be happy if this Japanese spirit spreads throughout the world! In Japan, there is a concept called 「wa no kokoro (spirit of harmony and love)」 「love（kokoro）」 refers to the spirit of taking pleasure in others as one's own pleasure, A heart for what is good for the world and for othersand 「Harmony（wa）」 refers to the spirit of always wishing for a happy life not only for oneself but also for everyone around one. If all people on the earth live with “wa no kokoro (spirit of harmony and love)”, we will have more peace. I hope this spirit will spread throughout the world In Japan, these things are called 「wa wo motte toutoshitonasu」 That's what call it.
