There is a lot going on in the world and we know you want to stay informed. You are the reason JAPAN Forward launched The Week - a podcast for busy people who want to keep abreast of Japan’s culture, politics, business, economy and research worlds. Hosted by Arielle Busetto.
In our fourth episode we discuss German Chancellor Olaf Scholz's visit to Japan. We also talk about Russian threats to Japanese territory, the impending release of the coming-of-age film My Small Land, and the May 1 annual Tenno Sho G1 horse racing event. Find the related articles list below.
