On his last official visit to the Philippines on April 24, 2019 to attend the awarding of the Year 3 winners of the FALIA-PLIA Essay Writing Contest held in Harold’s Hotel, Cebu City, FALIA director Yoshitake “YOSHI” Masai was tendered by PLIA a karaoke party to honor his retirement.

Representing the PLIA Board was director Joen delas Penas, who is a native of Cebu.  Together with Mr. Masai was FALIA Managing Director Toru Yagashima.

It was a night of fun, camaraderie, singing and dancing.  Years of closely working and developing friendship with Mr. Masai will long be remembered by PLIA.

Godspeed, YOSHI!
