    You mean unlike Japan's constant badgering of it's trading partners over things like American beef ? Boy Japan has a lot of nads here. They blatantly violate rules set out by the WTO and then ask for their trading partners to please understand their position ! Funny how when the shoe is on the other foot Japan thinks a simple apology will suffice. I say the heck with that ! Drag them thrugh another round of WTO court ! Make Japan live up to their agreement... I want my rice and I want it now !
