Asia University, Japan, has had friendly ties with TKU since 1970. In fact, she is the second school that has enjoyed such an amicable sisterly relationship with us. (The first school was Chuo Gakuin University). The two sister schools have honored their mutual obligations of exchanging faculty and students for many years. For instance, we have just sent 4 student clubs to visit their campus and have just completed a friendly mission program there. Now they are here visiting us. What more is to be said?

Except for socializing purposes, Asia University visitors also intend to see their alumni/ae in Taiwan. They have quite a few alumni/ae here. On the average there are 50 to 60 students to study there from Taiwan every year.
