 Mongolian law students are
learning to speak Japanese as part of a project begun by Japan’s Nagoya
University.
Law students from the National
University of Mongolia recently participated in a video-phone forum
with Nagoya University's Center for Asian Legal Exchange.
Beginning in 1998 with funding
from the Japanese government, Nagoya University started teaching Asian
legal students how to operate within the Japanese legal profession.
The university has also set up centers in Vietnam, Uzbekistan and Mongolia.
The program seeks to assist
Asian countries in improving their legal systems to complement their
efforts to create market economies and expedite the democratic process.
"As ties with Asian countries
become ever more important, the university can distinguish itself from
other universities by serving as a go-between with aspiring legal professionals
in Asia," said Masaki Nakamura of the university's Center for Asian
Legal Exchange.
