‘The Week’ Podcast #9: Kishida Polls at 68%, Travel in Asia, Ukrainian Sumo Wrestlers

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 ninth episode we discuss the most recent Sankei Shimbun and FNN approval ratings of the Kishida cabinet and its policies. We look at the future of strategic ambiguity with Taiwan. We also delve into the travel landscape in Asia, Star Wars Day, and even a rehabilitation center for racehorses in Fukushima. Find the related articles list below.
