China’s pissed.

@xinxin

100%

I can understand people against vaccinations since everyone has different response and immunity, but what’s with mask- haters? Did you buy them the masks? Japanese people wore mask during flu seasons way before Covid. Whether it’s vaccination or mask wearing, everyone has their own right to follow the due diligence as they deem as necessary.

Why would we rely on a regional paper from Tampa Bay versus the CDC government website? Not only by individual states but also locally the vaccination release and supply varies in the states. Starting from this vaccination, it costs around $120-130 without insurance, so it really depends on who needs it and is properly eligible.

Not true that this shot is not recommended for anyone under 65. Absolutely false information.

@Jansob

Really appreciate your feedback and a little chilling..

Thanks for your constructive feedback. Allows me to look into other perspectives….

Can someone explain the difference of the “concept” of Han between the Chinese and Korean? It was a Chinese dynasty that assimilated its culture to Korea from my understanding. How is this relevant this topic in discussion?

I take in part of that. Obviously it’s not a go to place to grocery shop in bulks but it’s convenient to just grab and go.

About time they upgrade that theme park…its surrounding neighborhood has more to see than itself…

Absolutely concur with the message!

If you must, stop and sideline to do whatever you have to with the phone.

Tired of people starring down, walking and bumping into each other.

Not sure if they’re back in business in full but Hato bus has nicely planned out packages for fruit picking by seasons. I’ve done blueberries and grapes. They were group tours and meal services are planned ahead as well.

Really good time : )

Does this also mean the scorching hot summer will come earlier as well…? :(

@painkiller

Well said, it’s a little higher under my understanding but obviously previous post was way off.

Retaliation my ass

@factchecker

Right on.

@ Ian

Suspension of visa in itself is a restriction.

US citizens already had to apply and pay for a visa to China, not sure about Japanese nationals but whatever the case may be, do people really desire to travel there at this point in time…?

I understand the situation here in Japan isn’t pretty at all but at least they have numbers reported whether they’re accurate to the dots or not. China’s reported situation is … the bare minimum to say the least.

Cry babies. Both Koreans and Japanese don’t care about restrictions against traveling To China, but a lot are concerned about THEM coming here. What’s wrong with a lot of them roaming around without mask and talking like maniacs inside the restaurants?

@Nemo

Exactly what I wanted to say. Keep the family business within and if that’s too difficult to resolve within, at least don’t publish it via netflix and a memoir.

@Kuma

Not so sure how much you know about Tokyo’s situation during the holidays. What did you expect? I reserve all transportations beforehand. It is what it is.

@rocknroll

Agreed.

This is not a discriminatory measure. Sadly but clearly China’s current stance is as is and will likely be put.

Not a day goes by without someone from China flying out not only the country but some quarantine facility. Oh, this is not singular to those in Japan, so stop with the political attack against the Japanese towards China.

But those in Japan, ladies. Please wash your hands at the restrooms. Gross.

Let the numbers swing. Holidays are over.

@ Josh

love small cities in Japan.

@ rich,

Thought I was the only one working throughout the holiday season. Agree with the subway situation but I can’t get a cab…

Around 10% of the mid sized firms made a surplus during the Covid and ongoing. No surprise here.

Confuses me how everyone here eats at the same time, takes off at the same time…..oh and their destinations match as well.

@Bronco

Good point. Sinopharm vaccine has as little as 12% protection, As opposed to other countries, I doubt they even have a choice to choose the type of vaccine.

Heard that those with money to do so are migrating to Singapore and elsewhere, (which they‘ve been doing for decades) Surely they are frustrated as we all are.

The comments supersedes the article itself

Let me get this straight, with the travel restrictions eased, why would people get tested? Aren’t we all just circling around with or without symptoms? I face a lot of seriously coughing people on a daily basis. Numbers are meaningless.

Interesting. We’ll see how much they can pull this off.

@ジョージ

No offense taken. I, too , was actually not a regular viewer of her shows. What I meant was that though I wasn’t a regular “viewer,” I knew of her history of career and interviews.

Asiana's been bankrupt for years this acquisition was in place for a while, what a confusing article title. It's not an approval per se, they're negotiating the routes and clearances.
