The post was liked by 208 people and 69 people had been written their comments.
The second public post including the photos of study at Tokyo Tech pamphlet at my own Facebook wall is created on 11th August, 2022. The description of the post was that "Welcome to Tokyo Institute of Technology. Please share this post to whom interested to study at Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan. Currently, the admission to programs in English is open. Goodluck to you and your younger sisters/brothers. You can also get the additional documents if you come to me."
