Mabuhay! Welcome to the official website of the Association of Filipino Scholars in Tsukuba (FAST). This site is dedicated to all Filipino students and researchers, their families and friends, who in one way or the other have been part of the Tsukuba experience here in Japan.
Through the combined efforts of its members, FAST remains one of the most active Filipino organizations in Japan. A home away from home for most, FAST continues to provide the opportunity for Filipinos to socialize, organize events, and assist each other in times of need. For more details on our activities, please visit the Activities page. Also check out our Photo Gallery for the latest photos taken during our activities.
