Are taxis included in the public transport category? So how are they supposed to get to their next place of quarantine after three days and haven tested negative? Walk?

Posted in: Mori resigns over sexist remarks: Hashimoto being considered to replace him See in context
Public outcry about Mori's sexist comments particularly pressure coming from outside forced the 83 year old oyaji to resign. But when I heard that he was to be replaced with an 84 year old racist oyaji in the person of Kawabuchi who once denied that Auswitch never happened, I wondered what has become of Japan. A sexist oyaji out, a racist oyaji in. I publicly condmed that and called for a younger candidate preferably a woman who embodied the Olympic spirit and values. now Kawabuchi San has been forced out too. Down with oyajis control and stranglehold on power in Japan.

Ojisanism ! Must retire and never be seen occupying any public office that will give him the platform to make such offensive remarks again.

Posted in: Biden solidifies U.S. election win; Trump says 'time will tell' if he stays in power See in context
Despite calling African countries sh*thole, Trump secretly admires African dictators who lose elections but refuse to give up power claiming a non existent fraud. Now he is taking a chapter from the play book of African dictators. Who would have imagined the president of US after losing the WH refuses to concede and spreading baseless conspiracy theories about election fraud. This is a serious blow to democracy in America.

i don't understand this story. Smeared bodily fluid o. the little girl? Does it mean he ejaculated in a packed train on her? That's beyond crazy. And he is a vice principal dealing with little girls all the time

I am surprised that the State Department approved this request from Japan. Did deputy secretary Stephen Beigun consult with his bossMike Pompeo on this? An American national, ex navy seal, done tremendous work for American including rescuing kidnapped schildren, undercover FBI stint etc being extradited under these circumstances by his own country to face hostage justice system quite a shock. Meanwhile Japan refused to extradite Takata officials to Michigan to face criminal negligence charges.

Ms Osawa shouldn't have agreed to meet this loser alone and she definitely shouldn't have hopped into a rental car with him. Even if she wanted to meet, it should have been in a public place with someone else with her. May her soul rest in peace. The man is a pathetic act and very selfish individual. Already married with kids, you don't indulge in this stupid act and leave your kids fatherless.

Is this also a bilateral issue? What's special about business travellers that other travellers like holidaymakers don't have or do have? The virus does not discriminate, and why should business travel between China and Japan OK but not between Korea and Japan? Illogical thinking.

Libel is not a criminal offence so why did the police arrest this man? If the woman feels aggrieved by the statement made by the man, she can file a civil suit against him The police doesn't come in. This man has not committed a crime.

I have no doubts he will recover not because he is resilient as Boris Johnson says but because as President of the United States, he will receive the best possible medical attention. The question remains whether Trump will learn anything from this. You bet only a visit to the ICU like it happened to Bojo in April would make Trump learn something. if he gets better with only mild symptoms, he would just dismiss it as only sniffles.
