I like Ibaraki. It's nice.

I hope he stays in space

Japan is seeing less crime year by year. It is getting safer.

Any statistics to back that up?

How depressing.

I'd love them to beat the LDP. Never going to happen, I'm afraid. People are clueless here when it comes to politics, and will generally never change their vote.

More years of LDP, their cheap suits and horrible massive stainless steel watches coming up

@Nibek32

That's fair enough. I just think the massive sudden drop is too good to be true.

I suppose being born and raised here has led me to distrust anything/any figures the government releases.

@stickman

During a pandemic? Thoroughly? Well done you.

@stickman1760

If doom and gloom is having a different view to you, then so be it.

You obviously believe the news story.Get out there and enjoy yourself.

Don't waste your time insulting posters who don't share your view on a message board:

That's doom and gloom

Panic over then?

Who knows @kurisupisu

Alot of selfish people out there in Tokyo who have blatantly ignored safety and warnings. Not a jot of guilt for the lives they could have affected by this horrible disease.

Everything will be ok in the end, one wishes. I'm sure there'll be another ridiculous go to campaign soon that the selfish will snap up

I say make testing free and mandatory. Get to the bottom of it once and for all.

Errrr, it's a news story. This is a message board.

And actually, what has it got to do with you?

You post comments mocking others who don't agree with you, so continue with that.

A tragedy.

What's wrong with people

Just irritating lies now. Oh well.

You've had your cake. Now eat it.

It isn't nonsense. Maybe exaggerated but China definitely has power shortage problems. Particularly in the North East.

I lived and worked in China, including the Northeast, for almost 4 years and never once saw a power shortage,

Sounds like North Korea

Utter nonsense

End up like China where you have to turn off the power for half the day.

Where do you get this nonsense from?

Who will clean the stadiums in Qatar if Japan doesn't qualify?

Looks third world

Come on Japan!!

Jongno 3-ga, Seoul...

Yeah right. I feel this is only on the list for political correctness. Top three in the world?

No Tokyo?????? Booooo. How can this possibly be???????

No, but it's rife here in schools.

Still saw 100% mask wearing indoors

@joffy.

Really? Enjoy yourself rather than counting. I saw some people indoors without masks. So there.

Shock horror!!

what a lovely warm and natural environment for these precious creatures..... 可愛いなー。

Welcome to Japan.

At least they weren't named Kenji and Nobuhiro

exactly what the U.S. excels in destroying.

So so aggressive all the time. Get into the real world. Stop blathering on about military and war.

How about for foreign travel @zichi? Do you think vaccine passports are needed then??

So many selfish people here. Go ahead and get Coronavirus before spreading it. Selfishly.

Good god.

Why does there have to be a campaign anyway? Why can't people just think for themselves about travel and having a holiday? Why can't people in the travel industry think for themselves about reducing prices and advertising special offers?

Babies.

These idiots are relentless. A quick look at this chap (no need to look as knew he'd be a male fossil, but couldn't resist) is enough to see how out of touch he is.

No no no

Like Terminator?
