Dr. Krishnaswami Kasturirangan
Member of Planning Commission, Government of India
Japan has a unique culture that has nurtured her strong science and technology. It seems quite possible that high-quality products can be produced because of her work culture where workers discuss and exchange ideas day and night. Studying in Japan will surely be a valuable experience for you. No economy can grow without the power of science and technology, and a lot of opportunities await you science students throughout the world. Please don't hesitate to challenge and carry on your long journey through life.

Mr. Akira Taniguchi
Vice President & Director, Honda Motor India Private Ltd.
Over the last three years, many of the Y-E-S awardees have visited Japan and completed their internship at leading-edge technology labs and firms. I suppose this exposure would have further widened their aspirations and motivated them to continue their endeavors in pursuit of technologies beneficial to all humanity. I sincerely hope this award will be a springboard for your professional career that may open up new possibilities toward further development of humane technologies.
