Young marine officers and engineers from 合法 カジノtroduced the work of ships and sailors through hands-on activities.

合法 カジノ, after a presentation about oceans and ships, the children operated a ship-handling simulator with marine officers and disassembled and assembled a small engine model with engineers. Using the ship-handling simulator, they piloted a small boat in Tokyo Bay. The young navigators commented, "It was difficult to change the ship's course" and "It was interesting to be able to maneuver the ship in night and storm settings." In the small engine model disassembly and assembly experience, participants used tools found on ships to open the engines. Comments included "I enjoyed disassembling the engine models using tools" and "I enjoyed having access to a variety of tools."

This event has been held in the spring and summer since 2014 to allow companies and organizations to give children hands-on experience with jobs in industries they are rarely exposed to. Approximately 2,000 elementary school students and their parents participated on the day of the event, taking part in activities 合法 カジノ booths of 31 companies and organizations.

While demand for seafarers has been increasing in the global ocean shipping industry in recent years, the work of seafarers is not well known among young people in Japan. Therefore, NYK has been providing opportunities to the public to become more familiar with ships through the Mirai Project so th合法 カジノ seafaring profession will gradually see greater interest. Participation in this event is part of such efforts. We will continue our activities through the Mirai Project to encourage children to become more interested.
