おはよう、こんにちは、こんばんは!!　ヽ(・∀・)ノ

Our club held the Japanese Language and Culture Joint Exploration Project, or JLCJEP for short, across 6 weeks starting from 14 November 2025 to 19 December 2025!

This project brought together students majoring in Japanese at the Faculty of Languages and Linguistics, and exchange students from Japan, both from Universiti Malaya (UM) as well as students from the University of Tsukuba, Malaysia (UTMy) in the spirit of cross-cultural interaction. The participants worked in mixed groups, exchanging ideas and insights they each brought from their respective cultures and institutions.

We would like to express our gratitude to UTMy for their cooperation, as well as to the Japan Foundation, Kuala Lumpur (JFKL) for agreeing to provide us with a tour of their library. Last but not least, to the participants, thank you for pouring in your efforts to make this project the success that it is!

マラヤ大学日本語クラブは、2025年11月14日から2025年12月19日までの6週間にわたって、日本語・日本文化共同探究プロジェクト（略称：JLCJEP）を開催していました！

このプロジェクトは異文化交流という精神で、マラヤ大学（UM）の日本語専攻の学生と日本からの交換留学生、また筑波大学マレーシア分校（UTMy）の学生を参加者として集めました。参加者たちは、大学や文化背景の混じっているグループ内で協働しているうち、自らの文化と大学（学部）から持ち込んでいたアイデアや観点を交換しながら、最終発表の準備を進めていました。最終発表の内容は、日本とマレーシアのコンビニ文化や日本の年中行事など、各グループの興味に沿って調査してきたものとなっています。

このプロジェクトの開催にご協力くださったUTMy様（）および図書館のツアーをご提供くださった国際交流基金クアラルンプール日本文化センター様（JFKL；）に大変感謝しております。最後に、努力を注ぎ、このプロジェクトを私とともに成功させた参加者のみなさん、本当にありがとうございました！

色々ありがとうございましたヽ(￣▽￣)ノ
