The theme of the Speech Contest is ecology and current environmental issues. The purpose of this speech contest is to develop Japan-India cultural relationship and to raise questions about environmental destruction. The contest for School/College students will be held in Tamil, English and Japanese languages and the first prize winners gets a free ticket to fly to Japan for 2 weeks of environmental study and cultural exchange at Hiyoshi Corporation, Japan. In over 25 years, about 100 students have visited Hiyoshi Corporation and are now acting as new bridges between Japan and India relationship.
