'Something beyond boobs`- Silicone, plastic surgery and international prostitution! i still dont get it why these girls are so popular in japan? is due to J-women's complex for small boobs?

Posted in: JAL to code share with Jetstar on Australia-Japan routes See in context

Hmmm, here you go..I was happy when I first heard abt the Jetstar flight but really wondered how JAL/ANA/JTB and HIS allowed to do so..now it all comes together and we will be paying JAL fares..next one is Air Asia.

Good for Lehman people in Japan, atleast they have a job..hopefully they wont mind working 16 hrs a day and getting atleast 50% salary cut.. good part of the deal is better to get bought by a japanese bank than chinese!

Posted in: JetBlue auctions flights on web See in context

Very innovative idea. I wonder if any airline in Japan can do the same as the airline market is controlled by either JTB or HIS.Looking fwd to a day when I can buy "real" discounted ticket on a website by myself instead of going to one of these agents.

Posted in: Namie Amuro album tops chart for 5th straight week See in context

believe it or not but Namie Amro copies Janett Jackson..i am not talking abt any similarities or dissimarities between their bodies but Namie's numbers and dances can be lifted from Ms, Jackson's song and Namie knows how to sing english words too e.g. you are my sweet paradise, lets harmony, lets romance etc etc.. but i have to give her credit, she is singing and is popular for the last 10+ year esp. when japanese tend to like underage lolita type singers.

Posted in: Bhutto's widower Zardari elected Pakistani president See in context

Now once again, Pakistan is on its way to self destruction..Zardari widely known as Mr.10 (receives 10% cut of everything) has very little political experience, he will be worst than Benzir who was enjoying her life in Britain while Pakistan was burning down. Very soon people will realise they were better off with Mushraf who atleast brought some peace and prosperity to Pakistan.Even though he was blamed as Dectator/Bush's Toy, Mushraf did a great job bringing down violence , the karachi stock market reached to the highest level. Sometimes its too bad to have a partial dectatorship esp. for a *** up country like Pakistan.

Posted in: Fast Retailing to open Uniqlo clothing stores in Russia, India See in context

Depends on how Uniqlo positioning themselves and their target segment. Uniqlo can succeed if they position themselves like Zara - lower -middle class/young generation with moderate income.Indian and chinese customers are too smart and cost consious than japanese.Also Uniqlo will face stiff competition from local copycats.I personally like Uniqlo and how they changed the brandloving japanese mindset, delivering quality stuff at low cost

Posted in: Critics dispute Michelin regard for Tokyo food See in context

Tokyo rocks in terms of no. of restaurants, consistent pricing, quality of food,cleaneliness and offcourse service. I included pricing as well. If you go to any other country and compare pricing in the context of service,food quality,cleanliness etc, think Tokyo gives you a better value. You can get a delicious lunch in JPY 1000~1500 range in a luxerious restaurant which I doubt you can get in any other country. The only food I am missing is authentic/homemade asian esp. thai food. but think that goes back to Japanese government policy of immigration and not allowing so called "blue collar" workforce that can prepare pretty good food at very low price but rather rely on Japanese workforce.Think Korean food is an exception.As Bilderberg said, these are just guidebooks for tourists and not bible.Places like singapore are good for Asian food but surely lacks variety and quality of other food whereas western countries lack finesse of

The best Olympic show ever, Congrates China..i doubt if any other country can put together such a grand show..Guys dont be cynical and throw away your anti-china sunglasses. btw, thanks to NHK for broadcasting the ceremony and as always the commentators sucked..they had done very little homework except JoshiANA's classic insightful lines like sugooooiiiii, subarashiiiii for every 2 minutes.
