This contest is for international students living in Ehime Prefecture, and this was the 20th time it was held.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year, 14 international students from 9 countries and regions studying at high schools, technical colleges, universities, and graduate schools in the prefecture entered the contest, and 8 students from Ehime University participated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The contest was simultaneously broadcast live on Nankai Broadcasting Radio and Ehime CATV, and was also streamed live worldwide via the Nankai Broadcasting website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The audience was filled with laughter and heartfelt emotions as the contestants gave humorous speeches about what surprised them about coming to Japan, how they studied Japanese, and the differences between their home countries and Japan. With each passing year, the level of the speeches has been getting higher and higher,\u00a0making the judging increasingly challenging. Despite the high level of the contest, three of Ehime University\u2019s contestants were awarded prizes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the contest, contestants who had never met each other before took commemorative photos, and the contestants and judges interacted with each other. This made it a memorable day for the contestants, the audience, and the management staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ehime University will continue to support international students not only in Japanese language education but also in efforts toward the internationalization of the campus in cooperation with the local community.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ehime-u.ac.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/\u51fa\u5834\u8005\u3067\u8a18\u5ff5\u64ae\u5f71.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ehime-u.ac.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/\u51fa\u5834\u8005\u3067\u8a18\u5ff5\u64ae\u5f71.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-295370\" width=\"695\" height=\"406\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ehime-u.ac.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/\u51fa\u5834\u8005\u3067\u8a18\u5ff5\u64ae\u5f71.jpg 927w, https:\/\/www.ehime-u.ac.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/\u51fa\u5834\u8005\u3067\u8a18\u5ff5\u64ae\u5f71-300x175.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ehime-u.ac.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/\u51fa\u5834\u8005\u3067\u8a18\u5ff5\u64ae\u5f71-768x448.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A Commemorative photo with the contestants<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Winners List<\/h4>\n\n\n<table style=\"height: 244px;
