Japanese Paper Making (和紙 Washi) in Kochi, Japan
Learn all about the ancient art of Japanese Paper Making!
Let's visit Kochi, Japan. Along the southeastern coastline of Shikoku Island, you will find this culturally rich city full of exquisite nature and abundant history. Now becoming one of the newest ports-of-call during Japan itineraries by the major cruise lines, Kochi is definitely a city where you will want to take a second look.
In addition to the historical townscapes such as Kochi Castle, old sake breweries, traditional markets and hot springs, you definitely want to experience one of the region's most famous cultural traditions, Tosa Washi - the art of handmade Japanese paper. Today, we visit Tosawashi Kogeimura Qruad Paper Making Craftwork Village.
The word 和紙 (Washi) comes from wa meaning Japanese and shi meaning paper. Washi is made using fibers from the inner bark of the gampi tree, the mitsumata shrub, or the paper mulberry (kozo) bush. As a Japanese craft, it is registered as a UNESCO intangible cultural heritage.
The Tosa brand of high-quality washi (Japanesed paper) handmade in Kochi Prefecture has a history of more than 1,000 years. It has been designated by the central government as traditional craftwork and is being produced in areas including Tosa City and Ino Town. In Ino, 0.03-mm-thick Tosa tengujoshi, the world’s thinnest handmade paper, is manufactured. At Tosawashi Kogeimura (craftwork village) Qraud and Japanese Paper Museum in Ino, you can experience papermaking, and create your own original postcards and paper fans, among other items.
Kochi is also known as “Tosa, the Land of Sake.” The locals are not shy to tell you about their many sake drinking games. Additionally, particularly unusual in Japan culture, Kochi women are very involved in the drinking culture. They serve meals on large plates instead of many small ones so they can serve quickly and then immediately join in the drinking comradery.

The video conferencing session between the two schools was conducted between students of Gyan Mandir Public School (Delhi, India) and Adamjee Model School (Karachi, Pakistan). The session was coordinated by Ms Anju Anand and Ms Devika Mittal from Indian side and Mr Usama Palla and Ms Suraya Islam from Pakistan. We're grateful they let us drop by!
The British tasked Cyril Radcliffe with the job of drawing a line to separate Punjab and Bengal provinces from India into East and West Pakistan. Muslims and Hindus weren’t the only ones being separated from each other. Sikhs and people from other faiths were affected as well.
A Sikh pilgrimage was divided because of the new border, Punjabi people of all faiths were separated from each other, and a culture was ultimately divided.
This Vox Borders episode looks at how the Radcliffe line changed Punjab and how communities are affected now.

When Britain handed Hong Kong back to China in 1997, Chinese leaders agreed that Hong Kong would be able to keep its economic and political systems, including some of the civil freedoms denied to China’s citizens on the mainland, for the next 50 years.
Although Hong Kong still has nearly 30 years of semi-autonomy left, China has started tightening its grip, and many believe it is chipping away at Hong Kong’s freedoms. In this episode, I explore how Hong Kong is dealing with the looming deadline and China’s premature moves.
