Air Self-Defense Force chief Gen Toshio Tamogami should focus on establishing the infrastructure for the production of a domestic 4th/5th Generation fighter. To satisfy the needs of the US for a more assertive military in Japan actually is unacceptable to a large segment of the US. Former PM Koizumi knew…
U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki Moon has achieved a breakthrough. From my observations, this is a very complicated situation, and does take the combined efforts of top diplomats to steer the aid to the appropriate targets. ASEAN is a great asset, and got backing from many powerful groups.

This beef issue is not about just selling beef. If sales of beef was the only concern, the US would just sell the under 20month beef at premium prices. A US Agency team did convey this beef issue w/ me, and…
I have kept tabs on ASEAN over the years, and they consider all their members as "allies" moving together for a better tomorrow even when things may not be "ideal".
Regional jurisdiction over the Myanmar/Burma situation should first/foremost be addressed by Myanmar and ASEAN.
