    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    To the inevitable question of what a Japanese businessman is doing in the war in Ukraine, Toru Tokushige, chairman of drone maker Terra Drone Corporation, provides two reasons: a business opportunity that doesn’t exist in his country and the conviction that Japan is an archipelago at high risk of attack.

    Controversy in Japan over Prime Minister Takaichi’s excessive work zeal: ‘Between 0 and 3 hours of sleep a day’ (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    A message posted this week on the social network X by Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, in which she boasts of sleeping “between 0 and 3 hours” a night, has sparked intense controversy in Japan. The debate raises the question as to whether such excessive work zeal and extreme devotion to wakefulness sets a bad example for the public.
