Hope it was quite successful and people of Myanmar may look forward to Weekly or Monthly shows from now onwards.

So much for the indignation towards the regime after after Kenji Nagai was executed by a Burmese soldier. Why is JT calling Burma the illegal name Myanmar? Surely doing so gives the terrorist leaders legitimacy. Koshino is making money on the backs of this oppressive regime, shame on her and the Japanese Govt. All they want are Burmese resources.

Like I've said, the majority of Japanese businesses and most of the celebrity crowd (not to mention the national govt) will do just about anything if they can make some yen off it, dictators of all flavors most welcome. This is the real face of Japanese kokusaika (as well as searching the world for anyone & anything that says something positive about Japan). This is also I think what happens when you let the amoral business class run the show.

Why doesn't Koshino do something positive, like show some real class, for all the people of Burma rather than just yet again kowtowing to the military dictators there as Japan so often does? Maybe she and all the celebrity wannabes walking the catwalk with her can donate some of their earnings to some worthwhile humanitarian cause in Burma.

Koshino, a woman of opposites, indeed... http://armchairasia.blogspot.com/2009/07/fashionable.html
