Japan and China need more programs like these.

Japan should let them "rent" the birds for $1M/yr each, not actually transfer ownership and require they be returned. If there is a death, there should be a $10M fine for each dead bird.
Isn't that how China handles pandas?
So, Japan shouldn't need to wait for the $47M. No more sent until the funds are transferred. After all, China understands this is how neighbors treat each other. China is used to breaking agreements, so Japan shouldn't worry about doing that.

@theFu Always so negative. What a way to live a life. The cooperation is to increase wild populations of crested ibises in both Japan and China.
That Japan has now established a small wild crested ibis population is because of China's generosity.

Exactly what I was thinking! If it is good for Panda, it is good for the Ibises.

Looking good

Beautiful birds that nearly went the way of the dodo.

They should have tried this with the Japanese version before they disappeared. Hopefully they can bring them back with DNA which is happening with other extinct animals around the world.

deanzaZZR I just think that how China treats the rest of the world is how they should be treated. That's all.
When the CCP learns to "play fair", then the rest of the world should play fair with them as well. "Panda Diplomacy " is a real technique used by China. The rest of the world should have learned it by now. These birds could have been an example.
They've had 1-sided trade far too long and continue to abuse WTO systems constantly.
They abused the WHO as well.
They routinely ignore international law and international tribunal judgements.
China also doesn't work fully with international law enforcement to turn over criminals performing acts illegally overseas, even acts that would be illegal in China, as it the normal situation for criminal extradition.
Appeasing China will just lead to more and more violations from the point of view of non-Chinese CCP people.
Yesterday, some Chinese nationals were targeted in Pakistan just for being Chinese. That was wrong. I posted as much.
I'm actually not negative. Someday, I hope for a free China that learns from Taiwan and becomes a huge country that leads the world in democracy, multi-party politics and peace. That''s my dream for China. That isn't negative, unless you are a party member of the CCP. My friends in Macao and Hong Kong and Taiwan all wish for the same result. The end of authoritarian China is their wish.

Welcome to China, guys. Like the Pandas, they will be viewed as VIPs although they are not as intelligent as Pandas !
