[Student's Voice]
◎Name: Yamanaka Taikan ◎Country of Origin: China
◎Faculty of Science and Engineering, 4th year
As a person from China, I am grateful to be able to participate as a student in the many exchanges that continue the friendship that the founder of Soka University built with Premier Zhou Enlai and their will for friendship between Japan and China. Through my interactions with friends from all over the world, as well as the supportive seniors and faculty and staff, I have truly felt that my nationality is "global." All of my experiences at this university are treasures!

◎Name: Ray Rich Santana ◎Country of Origin: Indonesia ◎3rd year student, Faculty of Business Administration
Soka University is a warm place where we can worry and grow together. I have received a lot of support, and I naturally want to pass that warmth on to my juniors and friends. I feel that I am growing as a person through the human education at Soka University, which values each and every individual. I especially recommend that you experience dormitory life! Your world will really expand!
