TAMU has brought together Southeast Asian and Japanese youths engaging in social welfare, community empowerment, and socio-religious affairs into a dialogue to discover each other&#39;s cultures, religions, and values.<\/p>\n<p>This follow-up project will take you to discover other sides of being a Muslim and to embrace cultural diversity through photo exhibition from and online talk event in order to develop a better understanding towards Muslim from many perspectives and to create cultural exchanges so that the otherness will become more perceivable in this multicultural society.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The photo exhibition comprises of two sets of photo by three photographers sharing 65 pictures about lives of Muslims in Thailand and Japan. <em>Samak Kosem<\/em> and <em>Kalil Pitsuwan<\/em> pick Chiang Mai as a place to tell the story with short dialogues about diversity and migration of Muslim under the name fieldnote &#8211; visual ethnography of Muslim in Chiang Mai. On the other hand, Sato Kenei, a Japanese journalist, thought that the narratives about Muslim through mass media in Japan focuses merely on their religion. Instead of thinking that they are foreign people living in Japanese community, Muslims should be perceived as a member of our community so that we could discover many more sides apart from religion. His 25 photos will be presented with short story alongside under the title of Everyday Life of Muslims in Japan.<br \/>\nApart from the exhibition, there is also an online talk through YouTube Live on 19 September 2020. The first session will start with a talk from <em>Essaadi Miwa<\/em>, Secretary-General of Shizuoka Muslim Association, about living a life as a Muslim in Japan and life during a New Normal, followed by a reflection and messages about photo exhibition from <em>Sato Kenei<\/em>. As for a cross-sharing with Essaadi, <em>Alisah Hansamoh<\/em> will give a talk about Muslims and pandemic in Southern Thailand and Malaysia. The last session will be Embracing Diversity shared by ex TAMU fellows who will have a discussion on Muslims society in each region of Thailand and conflict management in community.<\/p>\n<p>Registry for Online Talk Link <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLScWiaAU-c04jEaOnOcS4t-OQ_epwOuXi3HQX7NMT6g8zya2rA\/viewform\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color:#0000FF\">Click&nbsp;<\/span><\/a><br \/>\nFor more details <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bacc.or.th\/upload\/EN%20Press%20Release_Embracing%20Otherness%20(1).pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color:#0000FF\">Click<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>For more information, please contact<br \/>\nMatsuo Yuichi, matsuo@jfbkk.or.th\u3000&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\nWathana Onpanich, wathana@jfbkk.or.th&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\nTamawan Pengsatis, tamawan@jfbkk.or.th&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Tel.&nbsp;02-2608560 &nbsp;<br \/>\nWebsite: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jfbkk.or.th\/?lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color:#0000FF\">www.jfbkk.or.th&nbsp;<\/span><\/a><br \/>\nFacebook:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/jfbangkok\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color:#0000FF\">&nbsp;The Japan Foundation, Bangkok<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;
