Posted in: Arashi to become goodwill ambassadors to China See in context
I am sure this will be a good move. Shows the maturity of even Japanese pop-stars. Can you imagine NSYNC or Take That being given similar roles? Maybe we should see if we can get them signed up as goodwill ambassadors, too. I remember that Geri Haliwell from the Spice Girls did actually become a UN goodwill ambassador in 1998 and went on to do quite a few meaningful charity related projects for them. I don't think anything bad can come from this. Good luck Arashi.

Posted in: Abe, Li agree on need to open new era for Japan, China See in context
It is great to see two important world leaders acting the part and taking positive steps towards stability. (I know the Chinese President wasn't there on Wednesday, but they had met on Monday.) They may have to pander to domestic audiences sometimes, but at least they can sit down and talk to each other respectfully and move forward. Thank you for your wise and stable leadership Mr. Abe and your stable LDP. You are a good example for Europe and North America of how to run a country as a responsible politician. Merry Christmas!
