Polish Ambassador, October , 2006 |

H.E. Dr.Marcin Rybicki gave the 11th lecture in the Series of
Ambassador's Lecture on October 27
(Fri) at 18:30 at the Japan National Press Club. He began his talk with the geography of
Poland,
pointing out that it is situated in the centre of the European continent, with no major
mountain
ranges to protect it. As a result, Poland has long been consumed with power struggles. At
times,
Polish people were not even involved in the fighting, resulting in the nation's complex
and tragic
history. Now the Polish people are fully enjoying their independence, but they deeply
appreciate
the value of peace. In this century, in order to join the EU, many economic conditions had
to be
met and a big revolution has occurred, which is gradually accumulating results. At
present, there
are about 130 Japanese corporations in Poland, such as Toyota, Isuzu, Toshiba and Sharp.
Japanese Corporations' supeior management and efficiency provide many opportunities to
learn
from them, the ambassador pointed out. In conclusion, as charter flights are available on
Polish Air-
lines, the ambassador urged everyone to come to Poland.
