With the cooperation of KENDO PARK, we donated 12 sets of used kendo armor to the Myanmar Kendo Federation to popularize kendo in Myanmar. We received a letter of appreciation from Mr. Tadayuki Dezaki, the representative of the federation.
The donated kendo armor has been collected and cleaned with the cooperation of KENDO PARK, a shop specializing in kendo tools, and is being used by about 60 students at the donated destination.

Comments from Tadayuki Dezaki, Representative of Myanmar Kendo Federation:
The lack of equipment was a major issue in the spread of kendo in Myanmar. We are very pleased with the local students who have received such support from Japan.
