'The collusion between Japan's powerful troika of politicians, business and bureaucrats both undermines the media's effectiveness and creates a system which breeds the scandals it should be uncovering.'

 

This answer's a past thread regarding the employment of non-Japanese people into high echelon positions, that is, they are a risk because they're not one of 'the club' and less likely to play by the (corrupt) rules. mad.gif

Not entirely related to that thread, but I often feel that the Japanese diet is curiously healthy in many respects but extremely non-healthy in others. Some of the fat/meat you can get here sometimes is just awful, like bad dog-food.

 

Disturbing thing to read though.

Too right Rach, some of the Katsu I got served up at the shokudo at work was 80% fat and gristle. And how much fat do they have on the pork in Okinawian restuarants eek.gif . Serves me right for choosing the unhealthy menu options I guess
