University of the Ryukyus held a short-term visit program in January 2021 for foreigners from the Pacific Islands. Despite the Covid-19 pandemic, the program was successful. This study shows that through the program, participants developed a better understanding of the culture in Japan, especially Okinawa. Furthermore, they displayed keen interest in recommending the program to people back home. This helps in strengthening the bilateral relations of Japan and the Pacific Islands.
