2022-12-09 Seoul Honorary Citizenship (ceremony & media roundup)

 


On September 29, 2022, I was informed that I had been awarded Seoul Honorary Citizenship. December 9th, I was one of the 18 non-Koreans to receive Seoul Honorary Citizenship. 

I was delighted to have several colleagues and supporters join me at the ceremony. They all have had a special role in my activities here.
