Thanks
for tuning in to another edition of the Japan Considered Podcast. This
week we backtrack a bit, with more information about government funding
of Japan's political parties. Then we consider the "tainted gyoza"
incident that recently erupted into a major topic of front-page
consideration in Japan during the past few days. And move from there to
the first part of our consideration of how the LDP and DPJ have handled
the gasoline tax surcharge issue in this session of the Diet.
As
always, continue to send your comments and suggestions for the program
to me directly at RobertCAngel@gmail.com. I'm a bit behind on
responses, with the recent increase in listenership. But read them all.
And will respond to as many as possible. |
