    YOUKOSO….ni Fukuoka.. Bias musim gugur segera terasa, udara masih sangat sejuk diluar saat kedua tapak kaki ini menginjakkan jejak untuk pertama kalinya di negara sakura. Cuaca yang sangat khas bulan Oktober untuk negara empat musim dibumi belahan utara. Hari itu tanggal 6 Oktober pagi 2010 pukul 08 am dipagi yang sangat cerah. Suhu disebuah thermometer raksasa tepat di depan Bandara Fukuoka menunjukkan angka 17 derajat, suhu yang masih sangat sejuk dan masih mendatangkan kesan menggigil untuk badan yang terbiasa dengan suhu tropis. Susunan aksara jepang yang masih sangat asing menambah dingin suasana hati, sedingin hembusan angin musim gugur di kota yang baru saja dipijak. Datang dengan rombongan penerima beasiswa Pemerintah Jepang (MEXT Scholarship) yang biasa dikenal dengan istilah MONBUSHO dan beberapa rekan beasiswa DIKTI kami telah ditunggu oleh beberapa Liaison Officer yang telah stand by dari pagi hari lengkap dengan pernak pernik bertuliskan Kyushu University sebagai penanda disuatu sudut ruang tunggu Bandara. Selain beberapa Liaison officer yang memang kusus ditugaskan dari kampus, beberapa mahasiswa Jepang yang ditugaskan dari masing-masing Lab sebagai seorang Tutor, terlihat ikut menunggu. Setelah menunggu beberapa saat, akhirnya bus kampus membawa kami menuju asrama atau kaikan Tidak seperti dinegara Negara lain yang menggunakan bahasa inggris sebagai bahasa pengantar sehari-hari, Jepang merupakan salah satu Negara yang masih memegang teguh penggunaaan bahasa Jepang baik lisan maupun tulisan dihampir setiap lini kehidupan. Walaupun dibeberapa tempat tertentu terutama fasilitas publik kita masih dapat menemukan translasi bahasa inggris, namun pada umumnya semua tulisan ditulis dalam huruf Kanji, yaitu huruf tradisional Jepang yang menggunakan simbol-simbol tertentu untuk menerangkan sesuatu.

  • Future Railway Technologies for Satisfying Social Needs
    HITACHI REVIEW Volume 61 Number 7 December 2012 Future Railway Technologies for Satisfying Social Needs HITACHI REVIEW Carried on the Web HITACHI REVIEW http://www.hitachi.com/rev/ Volume 61 Number 7 December 2012 Printed in Japan (H) XX-E340 1212 Hitachi Review Vol. 61 (2012), No. 7 284 Preface Highly Reliable Hitachi Railway Systems Supplied Globally In addition to attracting attention for providing a mode of transportation with a low burden on the environment, railways around the world are expected to play an important role in society, even while the reasons for this may vary from place to place. Examples include the replacement of aging rolling stock in the UK, the birthplace of the railway industry, and mitigation of the increasingly severe traffic congestion that affects emerging economies as they continue their development. Building on its success with its Class 395 trains, Hitachi was awarded a major contract for the Intercity Express Programme (IEP) in the UK. As a total systems integrator capable of supplying both rolling stock and operational systems, Hitachi aims to deploy the technologies it has built up in Japan to the rest of the world, and in doing so to make a global contribution through the supply of highly reliable railway systems. services over a period of nearly 30 years. While the UK has been a major focus of the Rail Systems Company, having first entered the market more than 10 years ago, the acknowledged success of the Class 395, which entered full commercial operation in December 2009, was a major factor in our being awarded this new contract.

It has a rich performing arts culture that meshes with a deep history of nearly 2,000 years that local residents are proud to boast about—and they should be proud of it. They are citizens of one of the few, if not the only Japanese city, that functions well despite or without Tokyo. The definitive “like” argument among land investors has always been that the airport is only 10 minutes or less by car or train from the city center. Second, is its problem solving capacity of the city government. A few years ago a road collapsed on a corner near the central station and snickering such as “Too big for their britches in the end a small town on the fringe,” “constructed in a manner suited to a developing country,” etc. Then a week went by and no one could find the sinkhole as it had been completely repaired and the road reopened.
