    As we are seeing with Haneda and Narita in the Tokyo area, business travellers/ holidaymakers are getting fed up with long journeys to their nearest airport hub. At a time when Haneda is being redeveloped to ease passengers commutes to a city airport, it is quite ridiculous to push the…

    Get rid of itami (pain) and accept Osaka Gov Toru Hashimoto's call.

    You can get to Osaka station (the centre of Osaka city business district) from Itami JR in 13 minutes. While from Kansai airport (on an island in the middle of the sea) the fastest link to Osaka station…

    The focus of this picture is on a North Korean sportsman with a Japanese competitor lying on his back in the same shot. No explanation of how the North Korean won (Ippon ? Points ?), nor, alarmingly for a Japanese-based news site, how the other Japanese judoka have fared throughout…

    More controversy-stirring by our favourite English language internet news site in Japan. Why could'nt Japan Today show a photo of the winning throw instead of a North Korean judoka standing with the number one pose with a Japanese judoka on his back in the background ? And if Japan Today…

    What people here do not realise is that yet again, news journalists/ internet news journalists have twisted a nothing story into something else to get attention. All the evidence shows is that 1 single person with a grudge has written to newspapers voicing her opposing opinion. The headline 'British town's…

    I'll give them an ERA of 3.0, sell takoyaki at Koshien, work in Hankyu depato in the mornings and clean the toilets with a toothbrush for $300K.

    USARonin, whilst countless young good American and British servicemen have returned home with a flag draped over their coffin all for the name of revenge and politics, the President of the US strolls into Oslo to collect the Nobel Peace Prize. Do you not see the hypocrisy ?

    USARonin, mine is one of them. A decision made by British politicians without a public vote and not a decision made by me. Like I already said, if you want to use military power for your own interests, then that's your right. But don't give us that speech whilst being…

    What a mistake. Award the Nobel Prize for Peace to someone who then makes a speech about the justification for a superpower using it's military might. If Obama wants to justify the US military being used to protect American interests, then fine. But don't award him with the Nobel Peace…
