Badge213 do you read the report? The World Health Organization released the warning. Not the Japanese goverment. The Goverment is only following the recommendation. According to the W.H.O, "Children are susceptible to radiation poisoning from iodine, which can accumulate in the thyroid and cause cancer."

Sad but most people don't know what a scam these exams are. Only the top 10 schools really use them. Most others it is simply a money generating thing because with the lack of children applying, everyone who sits for the exam, unless you are a true moron, gets accepted. SCAM.

These things cost millions and millions of dollars (upward of 10 million dollars) in logistic costs, security, travel, food, drinks, etc. People invited are 100% covered for travel, hotels, everything.

Hahaha. Mc Donalds had this problem with mega Mac. And groupon expects to teach Japanese about planning. Hahahahaha. Japanese have no planning skills unless they can have thousands of meetings and that years to do anything. Should of hired more westerners to run your company here.

charge her. people need to be fined and jailed for not following the child seat law. pure common sence in a country that lacks both. car seats are a western idea. i.e. they aren't used.

Watched a staff decorate before. She actually took one at a time and decorated it by hand. Each one took her 1-2 minutes. Doesn't seem like that much time but that dozen would take her 12 minutes or more to make. She had 3 colors of icing, each in their own cold storage ice container. She took the fist one, dried it off. Used it. Then put it back. Took out the next color and did the same thing,drying it off and using it the putting it back. Then came the scale then the final color. Scale again and then sprinkles while on the scale. A human robot. It was amazing. No one would believe me. But true. Why brainless people wait in lines for airy donuts is beyond me. The new York donut shop inside shinjuku station is so much better.

Foreigners are fleeing Japan in the thousands. Companies are cutting salaries. Expat jobs are all but gone. Why any foreigner would buy in Japan for other than a weekend pleasure house is beyond me. Japanese hate having foreign neighbors and often call the local authorities about any problems that they feel are happening. (all because of foreigners) and feel property values go down once someone moves in. In addition, the endless, wow an English teacher can buy a house, comment is insulting time after time after time. Japan.. buying a place... why?
