The "Fukuoka Asia Collection (FACo) 2016," which graces the streets of Fukuoka, was held on Sunday 20 March. The "asianbeat·FACo Kawaii Ambassadors," who will be conveying the glamour of Fukuoka's fashion and tourism back to their home countries and regions, arrived safely in Fukuoka. They participated as models on the FACo stage, and played a major role by walking on the FACo runway!

The Kawaii Ambassador party, who came to Fukuoka from China, Thailand, Vietnam and Taiwan, paid a courtesy visit to the Fukuoka Prefectural Office. After the welcome address from Ms. Oomagari (Vice Governor of Fukuoka Prefecture), with somewhat tense expressions on their faces, each one of the Kawaii Ambassadors said that they would enthusiastically participate in FACo and embrace their Fukuoka experience. They then responded with beaming smiles during the local media's coverage of the event.
