Japanese scientist with Turkish lovesick starts to teach courses
33-year-old academician, who stated that he was a Turkish nationalist despite being Japanese, will start teaching Turkish students in the next academic period.
Keisuke Wakizak came to Turkey for giving lectures, who dealt with issues in Central Asia and the Caucasus while studying Law in his own country. He said that he was very impressed by the head of the center, Hasan Oktay, conducting research at the Caucasus Strategic Research Center and continued: “Hasan Oktay introduced me to Turkish nationalists. I got more sociable and I learnt a lot.”
In the new academic year, Wakizaka will be an academician at Istanbul Gelisim University and will give students the lecture Introduction to Political Science.
I FEEL AS A TURKISH
After becoming Muslim and describing himself as Turkish, Wakizaka said: “I see myself as a Turkish nationalist. I do not deny my origin, but I feel and I live as a Turkish. I did not have any difficulty while learning Turkish, it is a tuneful language.”
HE WILL MEET WITH HIS TURKISH STUDENTS IN THE COURSE
Stating that his plans include giving courses at universities while conducting his academic studies, Wakizaka said that he would give the course Introduction to Political Science at Istanbul Gelisim University.
Expressing his excitement of meeting with his students, the Japanese academician said: "I give the course Political Science, as well as Central Asia and the Caucasus course. I think the course Introduction to Political Science should be given more strictly because you cannot understand any course without understanding Political Science. A soldier must use a weapon. There is no commander who puts any soldier who have not learned how to use weapons in the military front. We can explain this course with this example. I believe that I can easily deal with the students. I think it is important to be able to teach the course in the right manner.”
