If J Gov has Japanese evacuees under quarantine, they will have to do the same to Chinese tourists especially from Wuhan and other major affected cities for the same reason. Considering the number they simply can’t do that.

Right now from Wuhan ANA 767 is headed to Tokyo and Kalitta Air 747 is headed to Anchorage US. Can be seen on FL24 search with WUH. Evacuation begins.

Small but good news, a traveler from Wuhan but is healthy in Osaka asked to extend his travelers visa for 15 days as obviously he didn’t and can’t go back. He wasn’t expecting the request to be approved but immigration in Osaka approved to extend the visa for 30 days. This is reported by Preston Li a Chinese journalist in Japan. Any Chinese citizens especially from Wuhan who do not to go back soon should try immigration to extend the visa before giving up hope.

Evacuees will talk freely when they arrive in Japan what’s happening in Wuhan. CCP doesn’t like it.

Osaka City mayor yesterday announced that the city will provide quarantine facilities and medical care for those evacuees if requested by J gov. Osaka is big they should have what’s necessary.

Most surprising news to me tonight was that more than 50% of S Koreans are actually supporting Moon's decision to not abandon GSOMIA. I had an impression that majority of S Koreans didn't care for practical national security perspective but pursue dogmatic anti Japan sentiment and so they would slash Moon hard because of this decision. Even though it seems to be reported on the news in SK that this decision was based on Japan's set back from its position on white list issue which is false, somehow S Koreans are doing fairly good in trying to receive what's been happening. US did a good job babysitting SK at this time.

Strange.

In Japan Jiji Tsushin is reporting the same, possibly based on the same source Foreign Policy as this article by Reuters. At the same time some Japanese journalists are getting information from the White House that says 8 mil is incorrect and US has not even decided the final figure of demand.

So the demand may be less than that, or even more than 8 mil. If SK goes out of the link Japan may actually cover a lot more of the cost of NE Asia security.

On the other hand Canada team whose game was canceled volunteers and join the effort of locals to clean up in Kamaishi. Nice.

South Korea is making it very clear that their hypothetical enemy is Japan, not DPRK. At least South Korea is honest about it.

Still can’t believe this!

On the other hand I kind of understand this. Koizumi went to a university in NY and he learned to speak in English. Since then he had been speaking Japanese in Japan. Now that he has an opportunity on the job to speak in English that is still school boy English. That happened to me too when I was young. Still embarrassing, he’s not young and he is a minister. He should have started with a translator.

He was once considered a future PM but his 15 minutes is over. Also, Abe is good at this, taking his enemy home and give them opportunities to make mistakes. Ishiba is down, Kishi is down and now Koizumi is down. They all lost credibility to speaking against Abe. Quite a strategist.

I thought 2 shootings with 1 killed & 8 wounded sounded like a typical day in Washington DC but this being a news, maybe the city is actually safer than I thought.

I hope UK joins TPP if UK really leaves EU, it will be beneficial for both UK and other member countries.

The SK companies are now required several pages of data when applying for import clearance and some of the requirements will risk them revealing their production techniques something that any company will be reluctant to do.

This is because SK is not on the white list now. The same requirements apply to all other Asian countries as they are not on the list. What I said was the.requirement for SK to STAY ON THE LIST instead of standard requirements for non listed countries. SK chose to get off the list by neglecting the former.

Oh not again.

i heard Japan’s high lank Cabinet Office and Ministry of Finance officer, ret. saying on the radio “It’s just one Excel file that they need to send to Japan so that to stay on the white list why can’t they do that?”

Why can’t they disclose end users of those materials? They don’t know themselves? If so why not simply ask for international support to clarify?

Other than Japan, UK, US, Canada, France and South Korea is dumping radioactive water for the same reason that it is safe enough. For example SK dumps 8 times more radioactive water than Japan.

If anyone think it is dangerous, contact point is ASN,

Autorité de sûreté nucléaire

Seems like that’s where safety standard is being defined for international community.

It’s really OK if Japan dumps radioactive water into the ocean.

Guy had to leave his family in Russia? CIA couldn’t extract the family? This will make it even more difficult for CIA to get informants in Russia in the future after this report.

I’m not worried too much. We won’t apologize again and at the same time our love for Korean yakiniku and all kind of Chinese food will never go away. Food culture is undefeatable.

China and Japan can also share sports culture, Chinese understand sportsmanship.

China: $228 billion, 1.9% of GDP

China’s current military development is only taking 1.9% of their GDP yet, that’s rather scary. They could do much more if they think is necessary.

Maybe that number from China is manipulated, but still 1.9% is a scary number.

History doesn’t explain those missing products Korea imported from Japan. Those products could be used to develop WMD.

So SK needs to find out where they ended up and how it happend, how SK should prevent it to happen in the future and report to Japan. This is only normal procedure but SK failed.

Moon uses history so that to hide the current issue on which SK is responsible, but Abe wouldn’t let him go.

Japan will keep requesting the report until SK finally clarifies. And Japan will keep treating her export to SK on the understanding that SK cannot handle sensitive products responsibility. This is again only a normal procedure too.

Yeah, Japan govt really need to look into Chosen-Soren and Mindan harder. Very difficult job. Some people in those organizations are sources of NK info for Japanese police. Also basically they are minority in Japan a lot of human rights concerns are on it.

I heard J govt is being prepared to use tax issues to disarm these organizations.

156 cases are not suspected cases. They were the cases reported to SK parliament by the SK govt.

Then again, why SK govt neglected to fulfill its responsibility as the importing country to send report to Japan?

@slowguy2

No, requesting end user report is not “accusing”. It’s a normal procedure to submit the report so it’s also a normal procedure to request it when it was not submitted. SK has been neglecting the report for years. Japan had been sending warnings.

So, why SK had been neglecting the report? I’m asking because I don’t know.

@slowguy2

Yes, I do care.

Why SK neglected, and still neglecting to submit end user report?

Please, I want a straight answer to this simple question. No excuses.

Japanese companies affected by the export control are all planning to leave Japan and move to Korea or expand their production capacity in China and export from there instead.

This is hilarious I like it.

What I want to know is why SK kept neglecting the normal process required to submit end user reports. What did they want to hide? NK? Iran?

@sliwguy2

“And GSOMIA has not been "canceled", either. In fact, despite the acrimony from Japan, SK is continuing to provide military intelligence to Japan, until it officially lapses on November 23. This is how a mature, civilized government acts. Japologists, know your facts before willy-nilly insulting Korea.”

Japan had been keep requesting SK to submit end user report of the products that could be used to develop WMD for 3 years. Sent warnings and informed deadline date this month. SK ignored all of it. Now which government is mature and civilized?

Anyway it’s past 00:00 8/28.

It is effective now. SK is off Japan’s white list. Good luck SK.
