Aug 17 (the-japan-news.com) - The Imperial Household Agency said on Thursday it will announce the informal engagement of Princess Mako, a granddaughter of the Emperor and Empress, to former university classmate Kei Komuro on Sept. 3.
The announcement was initially scheduled for July 8.
The agency said it rearranged the date after progress in recovery and reconstruction work in the northern part of the Kyushu region, which was hit by heavy rains and flooding one and a half months ago.
