The 27th annual exhibition was presented by the Pakistan Bonsai Society at the famous Zamzama Park in Karachi. H.E. Mr. Masaru Hattori, the Consul General of Japan, Karachi, inaugurated the exhibition.

Bonsai plants and trees nurtured by the members of the Pakistan Bonsai Society were exhibited, and were greatly appreciated by the Chief Guest and the guests present on the occasion. The plants require a lot of care and effort and have a lifespan of many years. Many of the bonsai plants and trees displayed in the exhibition were more than 50 years old.

Patron-in-Chief of Pakistan Bonsai Society General Retired Tariq Waseem Ghazi, Chairman Khawaja Muhammad Mazhar, Vice President Khalid Sohail and Secretary Ruby Salman were also present on the occasion. The Bonsai trees included 200 different species of plants and trees, ranging in age from sixteen to sixty-four years which included bougainvillea, clerodendrum, tamarind, adenium and obesum.

A few days earlier Japan Fest was held at Arts Council Karachi, co-sponsored by Pakistan Japan Cultural Association, Sindh (PJCA) and Pakistan Japan Business Forum (PJBF).

Japan Fest is one of the largest events held every year by the Consulate-General of Japan in Karachi to celebrate Japanese culture, promote understanding and friendship between Japan and Pakistan. “Japan-Pakistan Fusion” was this year’s central theme, based on Japanese culture while also connecting with the local community.

The performers, collaborators and participants joined in wholeheartedly to make Japan Fest a positive success!
