St. Andrew #156, Jamaica
St. Andrew Chapter held its Flower Show on June 5 and 6, 2009, at the Auditorium of the Petroleum Corporation of Jamaica. Madam Hiroko Obata, our patron and wife of Ambassador of Japan Masahiro Obata, witnessed the opening of the show, at which the ambassador officially declared the show open. Thirty-six arrangements were made by 20 members. President Mrs. L.C. Monteith, Ohara School teacher, conducted a demonstration. We had nearly 200 visitors during the two-day show. Although there were slightly fewer displays than in the previous show, visitors were impressed by the high quality of work. This year our show was featured in local newspapers, such as the Sunday Observer and Sunday Herald. Ikebana and our group captured the hearts of Jamaicans.

Bangkok #177, Thailand
From August 6 to 12, 2009, at the Emporium Department Store, Bangkok chapter held an exhibition to honor HM The Queen on her birthday (August 12), which is celebrated as Motherfs Day in Thailand. The event was preceded by a demonstration of Ikenobo teacher Masami Su. The challenge in the exhibition was to use the Siam ginger flower (Siam tulip; Curcuma alismatifolia) as the main focus of the arrangements. Another challenge is how to maintain the arrangement for ten days, which kept all exhibitors very busy. The exhibition was opened by HRH Princess Somsawali. Some 100 arrangements, both table and floor arrangements, were displayed.
