Description: Friday, January 6, 2006 Volume 02, Number 01During this first program of the New Year, we focus again on recent developments in Japan's relationship with the People's Republic of China, and how changes in Japan's domestic political environment and political leadership have influenced events.Next week we will turn to the LDP and DPJ party presidential succession battles, reviewing the candidates, how they are conducting their campaigns, and how the competition has changed since Prime Minister Koizumi's incumbency.A listener last week suggested that I post transcripts of each podcast, and make them available in the show notes. Would show transcripts be useful?
