On Monday, 8 December 2025, De Liefde Club held Christmas luncheon at Si Chuan Dou Hua Restaurant in Marunouchi. It was the first time for us to have this annual occasion at a Chinese restaurant. 52 participants enjoyed a harmonious gathering. Our Honorary Governor, Mme. Louise Beschoor Plug- Wesseling kindly made an opening speech followed by our Representative Governor, Mrs. Reiko Koezuka’s toast. The participants were impressed by the acrobatic tea service during the delicious dishes. There was also a fun lottery drawing and cheers of joy. As a closing we sang “White Christmas” together and wished for a happy holiday season and new year.
