Based on this report, which was published on Saturday, 2nd of January, Norio is going to continue the unfinished projects of Titsu Nakamura, known as "Uncle Murad" in Afghanistan.

According to this report, in September of this year, Nurio Uwa arrived at the construction site of an irrigation canal in eastern Afghanistan, where a 4.3-kilometer long water canal was being reconstructed on the mountainside.
He wanted to help Nakamura after his retirement, but before he could meet him, Nakamura was killed in Afghanistan.
A technical support team consisting of Norio Owa and some other Japanese experts have come to Afghanistan to help.
Tetsu Nakamura was a Japanese aid worker who devoted several decades of his life to improving the living conditions of Afghan citizens, including in Nangarhar province.
