The university noted that one of the main results of their cooperation was the creation of the first scientific monograph in the country on the methodology of teaching the Japanese language in Kyrgyz, which was published in October 2025. This publication became the foundation for forming a national scientific base in the field of Japanese studies.

Since 2015, Yuto Saito has been actively working with Kyrgyz universities, starting with his arrival as a JICA volunteer. He conducts lectures, enhances the qualifications of local teachers, and organizes various forums and academic exchange programs.
