There really is no emergency in Japan...

If a health system is under stress due to COVID-19, other illnesses and injuries which are very treatable become more deadly.

Are these teenagers from broken homes?

Understanding != Agreement

Japan Gov saving face procedure initialised...

Japan one of the wealthiest countries in the world, it's time to use all that sick leave!

Nissan death rattle...

TEPCO has to make room for more contaminated water due to the reactors still requiring cooling to avoid further meltdown. Where else can they dump their responsibilities on to someone else?

Controlling people don't want to hear any potential criticism or allow members of their family to make strong connections with their relatives.

If this gives victims more confidence in speaking up about sexual assaults it is a great thing.

The are many more reasons why Australia should have issues making bilateral agreements with Japan. For one, Japan continues to be a haven for parental child abductions.

A tragedy. Who and where was the responsible adult looking after the child at the time?

What happens to the fibres you inhale while sprays this cosmetic mask on your face?

"avoiding conflict" aka not taking responsibility aka avoiding embarrassment aka...

Japan needs a child abuse register so people like this do not get employed again in roles where they are responsible for children.

The main people who benefit from a sole parental authority system are child abductors.

PM Abe Shinzo has been the longest serving Prime Minister in Japanese history. As the longest serving PM you would imagine this would allow you to put in to place longer term plans to enact important policy changes which positively affect all Japanese people in Japan and abroad. Shared parental responsibility aka joint custody is in the best interests of children. It is in the best interests of gender equality and empowers women to have more choice whether to be baby maker home maker and/or have a career.

PM Abe Shinzo, what have you achieved to improve and protect children's rights in Japan since Japan ratified the UN convention of the rights of the child?

@zichi not exactly true if said diversity is questioned only when they are not winning.

... without giving details.

Enough said.

It sounds like birth by C section at the hospital needs to include measures to transfer the mother's gut bacterium to the child.

What would we ever do if no one told us what to do...

Go foreigners! Pull Japan kicking and screaming in to the modern world!

Apparently being a father on a train can land you in trouble with police...

Sogi does not know what hostage justice system means. That's almost as good as the "I was drunk at the time" excuse.

I hope she gets all the money she has requested. Her superior should be fired too.

See, the trickle down effect works...

All careers must die.

@Yubaru true but someone has to call them out on it.

Great. What's next? Joint custody after divorce?

"We are a culture where people are turned off by conflict and place a high value on harmony."

What is your definition of harmony? People suffering in silence?

Is it a labour shortage or a wage shortage?
