Description

WHCjapan provides facilities to introduce Japanese haiku, Japanese haijin and trends in the Japanese haiku community to the rest of the world. It also provides opportunities for the Japanese haijin and those of the rest of the world to exchange news and views as well as forging and maintaining friendship through haiku. Both parties have so much to learn from each other and yet because of the language and cultural barriers the interaction has not so far been as good as one would have hoped. The only way to deal with this problem is simply to increase the chances of the two parties to have meaningful contacts of all sorts. The list aims at providing just that, the meeting point for the Japanese and the haiku poets from the rest of the world. One of the long-term aims of the World Haiku Club is to address the issue of lack of sufficient and effective communication between Japan and the rest of the world in terms of haiku and to promote true mutual-understanding and friendship. I hope this list will go some way to help us make progress in this painfully neglected area.
