Happy Birthday, Yasujiro Ozu! Your attention and appreciation to details were such that the higher power let you disappear from this earth on the day you were born. How neat.
Today is #YasujiroOzu's day (Dec. 12, 1903-Dec. 12, 1963). The young director at age 8, wearing a sumo "mawashi" he made himself, and with Setsuko Hara and Chishu Ryu. (c) Kamakura Bungakukan
We deeply mourn the passing of Paul A. Volcker, a member of Japan Society's Board and Life Director for over four decades, and indefatigable advocate in the promotion of U.S.-Japan relations. Our gratitude is immeasurable, and our deepest condolences go out to all his loved ones.
"You have to have an experience that is not of the world in order to enjoy the world"--Leonard Cohen, while a monk.
Dr. Testu Nakamura was a paragon of Japan’s soft power in Afghanistan. He was the most famous Japanese aid worker who devoted more than 30 years to improving the medical environment in Afghanistan and Pakistan who will be sorely missed.
With a heavy heart & much sorrow, we are devastated at the loss of hero Dr. Testu Nakamura, an honorary Afghan Citizen, who dedicated his life to helping Afghans most in need. Deep condolences to his family & #PMS. Afghanistan is forever grateful to you www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/ne…
Yoroshiku onegaishimasu!
Truly a historic moment as we celebrated the legacy of Ambassador Sakurai who faithfully led @japansociety for over a decade w/ help from our board chairman Joe Perella & search committee co-chair Jun Makihara & our staff family, past & present. Ganbarimasu!
Today is #GivingTuesday! Individuals like you allow us to help further U.S. – Japan relations through hundreds of cultural, learning, and policy events, and we couldn’t do it without your help! Support Japan Society with your tax deductible donation: bycell.co/qkov
In this season of thanksgiving, there has never been a more important moment to appreciate Japan for the new innovations and developments that build on its ancient traditions making it a soft power superpower. Check out my latest here in @japantimes japantimes.co.jp/opinion/2019/1…
Commentary: Japan is a soft power superpower jtim.es/qjIN30pXVKS
Researchers behind a major worldwide entrepreneurship report opt to consider one-person businesses part of the entrepreneurial ecosystem. This represents a big break with traditional thinking that only scalable businesses matter. bit.ly/35P2PtY

「最も健全な民主主義国」日本は米の「4倍増」要求を自立の好機にせよ 米軍駐留経費負担の増額要求は、無理難題に見えるが、日本にとってチャンスでもある。地政学的に賢明でない要求だが、トランプはアメリカの変調の原因ではなく症状の1つだからだ #日米関係 newsweekjapan.jp/sam/2019/11/4-…
