It's an issue of Japan trying to get protection for their BIG FAT lie of research, and think we are all a bunch of dummies by painting research on their boats and we should be gullible to believe that's what their really doing. I have nothing against fishing but when it comes to greed and excess, its so wrong. I agree its their heritage but back then they would get a few whales to eat, but now huge boats are used to kill hundreds it's so wrong and not anymore about heritage.

RIP, what a waste. I'd feel much happier if cops here would just enforce the laws and not only give tix when they are told to do so. Instead of raising the tax to 10% target the bad driver, for speeding, going through reds, driving while distracted etc etc, and its a win fall for everyone...

It also happened in Kashii part of Fukuoka at Jusco Aeon mall. And it probably happened many other places. Shame on them and release any security video of these low lifes to catch them.

Oh my, bless her. This is one of my pet peeves here in Fukuoka, I sometimes see small children being left alone in cars idling while parents etc are shopping or somewhere else, Ive told shop staff to announce the plate no. and when the parent appears with the attitude its ok, like im only gone for a moment, I bag them out. Anything can happen in a second...It's insane here

I agree with "my2sense" But also was she thinking she could simply just flush this poor little baby down the toilet (Baby found feet first in a western toilet) Problem solved she thought.

The Problem is that everyone pays to ride a bus train etc. so why do others have to except or put up with others who are rude. Ive poltely told people to stop using their phone....People talking to each other is OK but in a reasonable manner. What gets me are people who do their personal hygyene things like apply their make up etc... Japanese are usually well behaved and quiet so people who yap on the phone stand out but most Japanese dont complain so these people take advantage of their own people....but the Older people talk very loudly when they talk on their keitai, and the ring is like an alarm clock.....

Oh common, one a year...ALL IN TOKYO....what about the rest of the country like Fukuoka...I think anywhere they open they will be succesful cos jmen love breasted women. Night life hostess places are over popular here, .... Tokyo is not the center of the universe...

Japan should make those plates easier to read and remember, cos they have the main bold number then city name, another number, and a hiragana character. what about different colours for different prefecures as a start..

Bravo Shibly Nabhan, PhD....I live in Fukuoka and noticed this unaceptable problem...they are always thinking bring your own bag shopping is the only way to stop global warming etc. I always approach vehicles and in broken Japanese, ask them if they would not idle and turn off the car. Which 99% do so with a smile, I meet resistance with cab drivers which are a big problem. They laugh it off as i think its old school thinking that even modern cars needs to be on to prevent wear and tear...But most them are senior drivers...One guy had the cab off and we asked hime why and he said its his own cab so he has to pay for the fuel etc. I guess thats something we should take up with the Taxi companies and stop wasting the fuel so they dont complain its so costly to drive cabs, Dont idle, money saved money earned and healthy air for everyone etc. Also Some companies here drive around in Large empty buses as moving billboards...crazy, polluting the air and causing more traffic grid lock. The one company here that annoys me is called "LOVE THE EARTH" a bento delivery company, who by the name is really not loving the earth by idling everywhere while the drivers deliver there product. If you see kids left alone in an idling car call the police right away...that a law here not to do that. Speak your mind.

Believe me....there is NO common sense here in Japan. No one thinks what If...I see it everyday here...kids left alone in parks, cars (Idling too), taking buses alone to meet up the other parent and another bus stop....I think they think they did it once and nothing bad happened so its ok. But police dont inforce any type of law here..

Ive told many Japanese to turn down the volume on the bus, It comes down to CHEAP headphones, you pay for what you get plus you increase the volume in those cheap ones causing hearing damage so you increase the volume even louder to hear it....my headphone buds are isolating meaning they keep the sound in and you dont need so much volume to hear whats playing and no one ever complains...the price is pricey thou 40.000 yen, but the sound is like you are right in front of the band live...

Helmet helmet helmet, could that have made a difference....myself would never let my 6 year old ride anywhere alone, just cos she does it once who know what happens the next time...they don't have common knowledge of safety, BUT drivers are always driving badly, texting, reading and never comming to a full stop and looking the other way rather than both way at side streets.
