About Communication

          Communication is an exchange of information among people. Because communication is intentional human activity, it should contain meaningful ideas, thoughts, and messages. Good communication is not unilateral but reciprocal. One-way proclamation or propaganda cannot be regarded as communication because they are one-way traffic.
          In this sense, communication is similar to ping pong. If there is no return, there is no ping pong any more. Like this, we need to consider those who receive our message. For effective communication, the message should be clearly expressed without ambiguity. The message should be consistent throughout the communication as well. Next, we have to think about who they are and what they are interested in. In addition, we’d better estimate the effects and responses of the receivers. 
          I think that this project will allow us to understand other cultures and share comonality and  similarity. Further, I hope that we will see others from their perpective and respect their differences. Now is the time!
