Japanese schools cancel trips to Guam
Two Japanese high schools have recently canceled trips to Guam due to concerns of national threats made to the island from North Korea’s Kim Jong Un, according to the Kyodo News agency.
The two schools – Oita Hofu High School and Shimodate Daiichi High School – are among 12 Japanese schools that had plans to visit Guam between September and November.
At least 280 second-year students from Oita Hofu High School initially planned to come to Guam for cultural exchanges but canceled last week, to “secure the safety of students and eliminate their parents’ concerns,” Kyodo reported.
Shimodate Daiichi High School also planned to send students to Guam in October but decided to choose another destination in Japan due to parents’ concerns.
