Hosted Lunch, Presentation, and Bazaar for the NHK Culture Center Guests.

January 30, 2019: It was a pleasure for H.E. Ambassador Dr. Bashir Mohabbat to host a Luncheon, presentation, and Afghan goods bazaar for 50 special guests of the NHK Culture Center at the Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan in Tokyo, Japan.

Special guests organized by the NHK Culture Center were greeted with welcoming remarks by H.E. Ambassador Dr. Mohabbat who had prepared a special afternoon for the guests. Further, they were given a delightful and informative presentation on Afghanistan’s culture, history, natural resources, and progress by H.E. Dr. Mohabbat.

Following their presentation on Afghanistan, the guests were treated to a special lunch of various Afghan traditional foods carefully prepared by the embassy in honor of the occasion.

At the completion of the meal and entertainment, the guests were invited to peruse a small bazaar set-up with booths in which local Afghan businesses in Japan displayed Afghan craft and art items such as rugs, scarves, Afghan traditional clothing, Afghanistan sourced precious stone jewelry items, award winning Afghan saffron, and dried Afghan fruits and nuts for them to view, and inquire further about. All those present had an enjoyable time and remarked at how impressed they were with their new introduction to the wonders of Afghanistan.
