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 second episode we discuss a recent interview with Poland's envoy to Japan, and Japan's potential role in mitigating the impacts of the war in Ukraine. We also talk about a Tokyo neighborhood's efforts to raise funds to protect its famous cherry trees, and Japanese netizens' reaction to Elon Musk's interest in acquiring Twitter.
