Wow - it is 7,000 yen for a round trip. Normal cheapest prices are 28,000 each way before fuel surcharges.
We just booked for the easter holidays - family of 3 110,000 yen inc taxes and other charges

Here's an idea for them and they can have it for free. Issue an email address for people like this man to send a request for assistance - why does Japan hang on to the fax system?
There could be one central email 'centre' which could then forward and co-ordinate a response from.

I think they need something original and not copying something their main competitor did years ago.

not me - been here 8 years and even if they told me their names it would mean nothing to me. How come? Don't watch NHK I guess.
It's sad of course, no denying that, but should it hold up everything? Not sure who is being more childish here...

There was a much better article on the BBC and Reuters last week.
Seems the opposition party are studying the speeches so look forward to some deja vu later this year. I wonder if they got the bit about his chief writer being 26?

Most department stores in Shinjuku advertise translators in English, Korea, Chinese etc...
There is also a group called http://englishok.jp/ which have stickers in establisments where English is OK - does not help a majority of the tourists though...
Give them 10 out of 10 for trying
