There are just too many tourists.
japan should find a better way to spur economic growth. Relying on tourism is a bad idea.

Japan isn’t having much luck with its space program of late. Kinda puts things in perspective when u compare it to what the US has achieved. It’s like night and day.

It never, never fails. Every time the World Cup rolls around AP starts writing about the color of a player’s hair. It’s become a hackneyed cliche now. Agree with Yubaru. Please stop it. it’s irrelevant.

You obviously know very little about baseball. Colorado is terrible, the ball flies out of that park at the higher altitude. The Angels are mediocre at best and if Ohtani wants to ever win a World Series he needs to move to another team when he becomes a free agent.

Japan did a fairly good job of managing it. I was able to go into the office and work uninterrupted throughout the entire time despite many who posted here calling for more draconian measures. thankfully the authorities or nobody else paid any attention to that.
