On February 27, 2007, on the occasion of Kaneko Ikeda’s 75th birthday, the Singapore National Parks Board dedicated a new orchid hybrid in her name in honour of her exemplary role in inspiring women for the cause of peace. In her message at the Orchid Naming Ceremony, Kaneko Ikeda said that she will share this unique honour with the women of SGI.
Kaneko Ikeda is a lady of strength and wisdom. She has in her own manner of soft power, warmly encouraged fellow women to contribute to society through peace, cultural and educational endeavours.
