They will take your view to a colleague or supervisor, discuss it, and then “Japanese people are used to having a lot of population around,” the teacher adds. “They are polite in order to get the coop- eration of others; and while they are persistent, there is not the same aggressiveness. They have to work collectively,,so their li’s- tening skills are good.” She explains the Japanese habit of continuing a conversation by simply nodding and saying ‘yes.’ (Continued from page 9) Patience' IS a key. 5703 5704 ,5700 5701 .5102 6104 5012 WHEN Halton Board of Edmatim ................................... 5086 Gladys Speas Sdml .............

Both her children were born here in Oakville and sometimes- got the last word. From the begin- ning, however, she has been involved in volunteer programs in the community, most recently of course, Sister City events. As a Is the language itself difficult? Sekine smiles and says, “People say so. I try to give the impression that it is not so bad. Only difficul- ty is that it is nOt in the Latin lan- guage group so it bears no relation to English. I always say forget the English language, just take Japanese as it is. You make your- self miserable if you try to com- ’9 pare. come back with an answer.” - LOTTERIES - - LIBRARIES - - TEENLINE â€" â€" WEATHER - - SENIORS - â€" RECIPES â€" lfyodrenotfarrlia'wlmmis service 5000 tohea itisabout ENTER CODE 5156 5163 5170 5178 ,5179 5135 5112 5015 5239 5424 “His assistant, who was with us, said, ‘Where is he? He was here just a minute ago.’ And with that Mr. Pearson popped his head up from behind his desk. ‘I’m here!’ he said cheerfully.’ Kazuko Sekine laughs. ‘He was in shirt- sleeves down on the floor sorting out some papers; “It was very interesting for me meeting Mr. Pearson,” she says, “but also â€" disconcerting. In Japan if someone from a foreign country were coming to visit, a politician would be in full busi- ness suit and sitting in a large leather chair waiting sort of for- mally. But when we (my father and I) entered into the Prime Minister’s office we didn’t see anyone there at all.” “You know,” she says smiling, “I’d almost forgotten. In Ottawa we met Prime Minister Lester Pearson.” But here is another unexpected nugget unearthed from her past: the first time she visited Canada she was little more than a girl. It was a business trip with her father who was seeking alternate energy sources for Japan and the Canadian government was flog- ging the potential of the tar sands in Alberta (this was nearly 30 years ago). Kazuko was invited to accom- pany the delegation after her mother declined the honor. It must have seemed a great adventure, flying from Tokyo to Washington to New York and to Ottawa, and then boarding a small cargo plane to fly over the northern prairie site of the oil sands. “Archeology is very addictive,” she admits. Before she was wooed and carried off to Canada, Sekine had an exciting career digging up pottery in Iran with a couple of published articles to her credit. What many people do not know is that lurking behind her modest manner is the passionate heart of an Indiana Jones. She’s hooked on archeology and history. ,Sekine enjoys cooking (mostly of an oriental flavor), gardening, and music. “Because I have lots of interac- tion not only with my children’s friends, but with other students,” she points out, “I feel very posi- tive about young people? Her son is currently studying in Tokyo at the International Christian University, her own alma mater. volunteer she accompanied a troupe of local high school stu- dents to Neyagawa on a two week exchange. This was in 1990.
