Japan ex-FX chief Kanda appointed special adviser to Kishida

Hurray for our dinosaurs!

Recent years Japanese government's "advisors" who exploit and kill citizen, expand poverty, divide society, eat away and sell off the country.

Kanda is tasked to advise Prime Minister Fumio Kishida on international financial trends

How to waste MORE tax payer's money?

How to travel around the world for absolutely no reason, while throwing away tons of tax payer's money?

This is in the face of dozens of comments on Japan Today about them being "completely ineffective" and about the dollar-yen "going to 200". I hope the BOJ tipped off GPIF so they profited from the trade too.
