Gerhard Fasol’s welcome address to The Master, Dame Sally Davies, at the Trinity Japan dinner on 28 February 2023
Dear Master, Dame Sally, welcome to Trinity in Japan, and thank you and Trinity College for the great support.
With the support of then Master Lord Martin Rees, I founded Trinity in Japan on 5 September 2014. I was about 13 years at Trinity, first for my PhD, then as Research Fellow, then Teaching Fellow and Director of Studies, in parallel to my University Lectureship at the Cavendish. I came first to Japan in 1984 as a Trinity Research Fellow to build research cooperation projects first with NTT Research Labs and later with Tokyo University, and RIKEN.
Since September 2014 we had 69 dinner events, and 40 zoom events, in total more than 100 events.
I founded Trinity in Japan with triple purpose:
1. Serve the Trinity community.
Here some results: for our Trinity Japan zoom conferences I invite selected Japanese research leaders. To my knowledge, this seems to have led to a cooperation between one of the Trinity Fellows, and one of his companies, and a Japanese research leader, who I had invited to one of our Trinity Japan zoom conferences. Or as another example, former Visiting Fellow Commoner Professor YF invited alumnus mathematician AG to a mathematics conference he organized in Kyushu.
2. Make Trinity known in Japan, which serves us all.
You may be surprised, but Trinity with more Nobel Prize winners than all of Japan, is not known in Japan. As example, a Japanese investment banker with whom I recently had lunch, told me that “Trinity College Cambridge is not known to the Japanese Elite”. I invited him to one of our Trinity Japan zoom events, so now at least he knows about Trinity, and I hope he will spread the message to his friends.
In my experience, too many Japanese people when they hear about Cambridge Colleges think about Harry Potter first. We have to change that, and I have a number of ideas for that. So my second purpose is to create mind-share, foot print for Trinity in Japan to help opportunities grow.
By the way, I am doing this in parallel with the Ludwig Boltzmann Forum, which I am building as a global leadership forum, here in Tokyo with the Austrian Embassy, and other locations, and in parallel on zoom, in honor of my great-grandfather Ludwig Boltzmann who is one of the most important physicists. (https://boltzmann.com/forum/)
3. Lastly, UK investment into Japan is dramatically lower than Japanese investment in UK. Japan is difficult, our Trinity community can help.

Oliver Smith, Architect, Founding Director of 5th Studio
Oliver Smith, Architect and Founding Director of 5th Studio has kindly agreed to join us for a zoom discussion on renovating some of Trinity’s historic buildings:
Friday 24 Feb 2023, 7:00pm Tokyo time, start
Friday 24 Feb 2023, 5:00am New York
Friday 24 Feb 2023, 10:00am Cambridge/UK time
7:15pm -8:15pm Oliver Smith
9:15am – discussions
Retrofitting Trinity
This presentation will describe the projects of 5th Studio to retrofit two buildings within the central Trinity College site and explore the different issues involved in the low-carbon retrofit of both historic buildings – and those of the later C20th and the balancing the concerns of character, heritage, and sustainability.
I’ll discuss why this is necessary, how it can be delivered, and the lessons that we have learned and that can be applied to other projects.
Using the completed projects for the retrofit of the Wolfson Building, but more particularly of the Grade 1 Listed buildings at New Court, I will describe the principal risks to the project– arising from the proposed fabric improvements to the building – and how these were addressed:
Risk to character and heritage significance
Risk to building fabric
Risk from planning and listed buildings process
I’ll finish with a description of the project outcomes, which range from the delivery of successful projects, to the application of the developed methodology to other projects and to local and central government policy formulation – and will close by setting out some of the lessons learned and how these have allowed us to streamline the process, timescale, and costs for other projects.
5th Studio’s retrofitting of New Court, Trinity College, wins Editor’s Award of Architecture Today Awards 2022
Oliver Smith is an architect and founding director of 5th Studio, a 25-strong practice with studios in Cambridge, London and Oxford. For many years Oliver combined practice with studio teaching at the University of Cambridge – focussing on attitudes to materiality and construction and particularly on research and the development of practice of sustainable construction with particular emphasis on the retrofit of existing buildings.
This research has informed the practice’s work on a range of other heritage retrofit projects, and has underpinned the strategies for estate decarbonisation that the practice are developing for a number of academic and commercial estates – combining demand reduction through retrofit of historic built fabric with supply of onsite renewable energy.
Taken together with new-build low-carbon accommodation and workplace projects that include the innovative use of MMC and renewable heat sources, this work has establishing the practice’s innovative approach to low-carbon buildings, estates, and cities and Oliver’s status as an AJ Climate Champion.
Oliver is an adviser on sustainable retrofit to the Department of Business Energy and Industrial Strategy and the Climate Change Committee. He is convener of the NHS Retrofit Advisory Panel. Oliver is a founder member of the Cambridgeshire Quality Panel, advising on the sustainable growth of the city-region – including on the University developments at Eddington and the West Cambridge Site. He is a member of The Edge, AECB and UKGBC.
5th Studio are a unique spatial design agency, working across the fields of architecture, urban design, infrastructure and landscape. We work with our clients and commissioners to create beauty and enduring value from complex situations, for new and existing buildings, through to larger-scale urban strategies.
Our work is anchored by the experience of working and thinking across this spectrum of scales, disciplines and projects: we are skilled at thinking strategically, whilst also maintaining a meticulous attention to detail. With studios in London and Cambridge we are able to maintain a close connection to the people and environments with which we work.

John Ramsden on his newest book: “My book is an introduction to poets who wrote seriously about ‘political economy’ (as it used to be called). They range in time from Defoe (1690s) to Pound (1940s). They left us works like ‘Vulgar Errors Concerning Taxation’, ‘The ABC of Economics’ or ‘Economics for Helen’. Why did they write them and what did they say? It’s not a book with some simple ‘message’ about today’s problems. I try to let the poets speak for themselves; and to keep it all readable and entertaining. But I’ll be glad to explain what I see as some ‘lessons’ for our own times; and very interested in any subsequent discussion among your members”
“The Poets’ Guide to Economics” by John Ramsden has been published by Pallas Athene Publishers on 16 June 2022:
After reading history & economics at Cambridge and two years in a merchant bank, John Ramsden joined the Foreign and Commonwealth Office in 1975. He was posted in Dakar and Vienna, and then spent two years in Hanoi (chronicled in Hanoi After the War, Skira 2017). He spent the rest of his career in Europe, including a secondment to the Treasury and posts in Berlin (1990-93), the UN in Geneva and Croatia (as Ambassador from 2004-2008). He has also written The Box in the Attic, based on letters from relatives who took part in some of the great events of the last century.

Migration of Koreans to the Japanese metropole and living legacy of Japanese colonialism
Summary:
This talk will cover the migration of Korean people to imperial Japan during Korea’s colonial period (1910-1945) and the social, economic, and political situation of resident Koreans in postwar Japan. In the same way that Japanese people began to settle in Korea from the late 19th century, Korean people began to cross the Korea Strait to imperial Japan for a variety of reasons during the colonial period. When Korea was liberated from the Japanese empire in 1945, there were two million Koreans, primarily in the working class, residing in Japan. Among them, more than 600,000 Koreans permanently remained in Japan and came to be known as zainichi Koreans. While they were deemed ‘legal aliens’ and lost Japanese nationality upon the signing of the Treaty of San Francisco in 1951, first-generation zainichi Koreans also perceived Korea as their homeland and saw Japan as a temporary country of residence. As they struggled to be included in the ‘homogenous‘ country, they chiefly entered the non-manufacturing and service industry as self-employed. Today, the Korean markets in Ueno of Tokyo and Ikuno of Osaka, pachinko parlors, and yakiniku (grilled meat) restaurants are particularly symbolic of zainichi-owned businesses. Moreover, as people on the peninsula were ideologically split due to the division of Korea between the North’s communist system and the South’s capitalist system, so were zainichi Koreans in Japan. This led to the establishment of pro-North and pro-South organizations, where each founded schools for children to learn the language, history, as well as political ideology of their ‘imaginary homeland.’ In addition to my autobiography, this talk will end with suggestions for peacebuilding between the younger generation of zainichi Koreans and the Japanese mainstream population.
Mikwi Cho (Trinity 2017)
Mikwi Cho is a PhD candidate who examines the migration of Korean people to Japan from 1910-1945. To depart from the overemphasis on Koreans in the labouring class and women who served the Japanese Imperial Army during the colonial period, her study casts a spotlight on overseas students, Christian adherents, and women as a minority within a minority in imperial Japan. In 2019, she published her first article in European Journal of Korean Studies. She will soon publish another work on the migration of Korean overseas students to imperial Japan in an edited volume titled, Competing Imperialism in Northeast Asia: New perspectives, 1894-1953, by Routledge. Upon graduation, she will go to Earlham College as an Assistant Professor of Japanese Studies.
