Lock him up and throw away the key.

And unlimited no fly list ...

Japan(and JPY) is the exchange gateway for providing Russian gas to the region though.

not interested....

Then don't open/read the article or comment ....

It's funny they don't also mention who is the woman charged. It is Kwong's mother, so basically a family business...

Dumping of nuclear waste and heavy metals into the oceans has been going on for many years. Dumping this water is probably much less harmful to the planets ecology than all the waste plastic being used and dumped.

Yeah I've always dumped my trash in front of my cityhall, why should I stop ?!

Oh and I also don't recycle my plastic why should I not dump my trash everywhere ?

That just makes no sense ...

Ricky Kaminski13Today 09:53 pm JST

Todd, ok will bite. What do you suggest?

Dump it in Lake Inawashiro ?

Interesting to see how many were supported by a foreign country. Time will tell.

Interesting, do you have facts to back your statement up ?

97 for being kicked out of high school, considering the impact it can have, is pretty cheap...

Who in the world cares if those criminals publish a few Australia limited diagnostic codes like p_diag: F122 ? I would only be surprised if they publish that no one has this diagnosis. lol

Your health insurance will be happy to add those to their pricing database...

Nice, more and more centralization (already 40% or the transactions are added by 2 entities), exactly what a currency needs ...

It is interesting to see the pro crypto go crazy putting out article after article with "in to future" " with advancements" etc...to try and say this form of currency inst far more costly in power than what they like to call "Fiat" but the reality is that today cryptocurrency uses fat more and if the supporters get their way then it will need 90% more as the entire population would be using it.

I am assuming we are talking about bitcoin here as ethereum is moving to POS. The number of users using BTC is not correlated to the need of electricity, BTC can work technically with a few home computers, greed and people with resources investing in expensive hardware wanting a share of the pie bring the electricity consumption high.

Yes, leave the fiat system for a crypto controlled by a single guy and with transactions validated by the rich. Sounds perfect.

and speculations continues...when usd and euro very overvalued...and jpy just too weak...

EUR overvalued ? It's currently below 1 usd ...

China should stop interfering with Korea's internal affairs.

@Eppee

Crypto currencies can be extremely useful when used as intended.

I am working with a guy in Belarus, crypto currencies allow me to continue our work relationship despite the political climate.

With all respect, this reads like you are circumventing sanctions which...is illegal. As such, I would not be too talkative about it in public...

What sanctions do I circumvent ? I am not a citizen from any countries applying those ... The fact is we previously used services from the USA and USD to do our transfers, which we cannot anymore, that's all, we're using another service.

Abe234Today 01:47 am JST

I agree up to a point. I think there is a use for them, but as cash.I'm not so sure.

It may allow you to continue a work relationship despite the political climate, but then again, can't this person also just do a normal transfer of cash. The system is in place, it can be transferred in minutes. Eg WISE.

No, everything has been blocked, no international transfer, no wise, no PayPal, etc. They are all companies from the USA.

Crypto produces nothing, makes nothing and does nothing. Until it does, I’d stay out! Tulips, and pyramids come to mind.

some really are day dream believers through!

This is a European problem, not a Japanese problem! Drop all Russian sanctions immediately. It's an excellent chance for Japan to gain a very large economic advantage over Europe and USA.

Let's see when that happen up north.

ooheysnewToday 07:22 am JST

for me, Abe will be remembered for wasting 100’s of millions of $$ on useless masks, that were purchased from his friends company.

Indeed, I am a bit confused by all of that, his assassination is awful but everyone is acting like he was Gandhi, truth is, he was an (ultra?) nationalist with quite a few dodgy scandals, everyone forgot the land deal already ?

ianToday 01:13 pm JST

There is a good way to maintain joint custody.

Try not to make the spouse run away

I am confused, have you even spent more than 2 weeks in Japan ?! This is common practice here, after the divorce the father doesn't see his kids anymore. It doesn't only happen to foreigners, lots of Japanese fathers face the same fate, most of them accept it but a few try to fight it.

MeiyouwentiToday 07:41 am JST

Let’s look at the case objectively. The woman and her children ran away from the wife-beating husband and would like to continue to live together in peace. At least the court granted the Frenchman the right to see his children. He needs to learn to be a good loser.

It seems that you have no clue of the case, for fact : "The woman claimed she suffered domestic violence while they lived together, but the court did not recognize that abuse occurred." Garanteed if the court in Japan didn't recognize abuse, there was no abuse.

Ahhh it's good to see them happy, smiling on a wonderful background like a bunch of teenagers on a school trip while the economy is crashing, inflation is sky high, the war with Russia intensifying and China becoming more belligerent day by day. Good for them...

She must have added quite a lot for it to be noticed by odour and colour...

IMHO, Europe just doesn't know how to do 'multiculturalism', Canada does it very well, even USA does multiculturalism better than Europe.

I am curious of the numbers of the Muslim immigrants and refugees in those countries, that could help the comparison.

Sorry my bad, I read your comment too fast, I skipped the "not"

TokyoLiving, the only people the sanctions are trying to influence are the oligarchs. They've had their yachts and overseas properties seized, they can no longer travel abroad, and now luxuries are becoming unavailable even within Russia. Sooner or later, they'll turn against Putin, and then he's toast.

I don't know, I am not convinced. When have economic sanctions already been effective in history? North Korea, Iran, ...?

I dont know, lots of Korean were saying it was choosing between plague and cholera ....

Pukey2Today 05:07 pm JST

Most people here at JT have no clue about HK. blahblah non sense

What are you even talking about ?! Have you even set a foot in HK for the last 5 years ?!

This is just a creation of yours, or maybe the result of the 2019 district elections skipped your mind ?!

Is he the only person convicted other than Epstein and Ghislane?

Yes, case closed, the pleb thirst for blood has been quenched. Nothing to see, move on.

Hong Kong limits private gatherings to fight COVID19:

Did some Hong Kong news media not mock the mainland of such practice to reduce the virus spread before?

What have they got to say this time..?

Maybe you missed the news but there is no more independent Hong Kong news media...
