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 sixth episode we discuss recent developments in Asia, including the elections in the Philippines, and the president’s inauguration in South Korea. We also talk about an interview with the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry Koichi Hagiuda, Japan’s Golden Week, and Haruki Murakami’s latest work. Find the related articles list below.
