    ●JOC to investigate violence in judo, other sports
       女子柔道トップ選手 暴力、パワハラ告発 

    TOKYO— The Japanese Olympic Committee says it will launch an investigation into the alleged abuse of elite female judo competitors by former national coach Ryuji Sonoda.The JOC issued a statement on Friday saying it found the “inappropriate behaviors conducted by a former Japanese national judo coach most regrettable. Violence has no place in sport and directly contradicts the values of the Olympic movement.”Sonoda, a former world gold medalist in the men’s 60-kilogram division, resigned Thursday after it was revealed that 15 top female judoka accused him and other coaching staff of harassment and physical violence during training before the London Olympics.The JOC also said it would investigate every other national sports federation, aiming to eliminate similar coaching abuses as Japan vies to bring the 2020 Games to Tokyo。
    ……, a soccer commentator from Brazil, said corporal punishment is unfortunately part of Japanese culture."The issue attracted attention when a sumo wrestler died following violence, but I do not think the sports world has changed,” said Echigo, who played soccer in Brazil and Japan.……

    ●Tokyo’s 2020 Olympics bid faces reprimand for Inose’s comments on Istanbul

    In what could inevitably be a big blow to its bid to host the 2020 Olympics, Tokyo could face a reprimand from the International Olympic Committee (IOC) Ethics Commission after comments by Tokyo Governor Naoki Inose about Istanbul were published in The New York Times. He apparently violated Rule 14 in the conduct for bidders, which prevents bid cities from commenting on their rivals.
    Inose, who often has controversial views on issues, was quoted in the Times as saying that Istanbul is less capable of hosting the games than Tokyo. He also said that Turkey doesn’t have an advantage because of its large youth population over Japan’s relatively aging society. He said that if the Turkish people want to live longer, they should imitate Japan’s culture. “There might be a lot of young people, but if they die young, it doesn’t mean much”, he was quoted as saying. He also made some comments that might be construed as religious discrimination, when he said that the only thing Islamic countries have in common is Allah and that “they are fighting with each other, and they have classes.” In fact, Turkey is a secular nation, even if its population is mostly Muslim. The government ministers are reportedly “surprised” with Inose’s comments, given that he is a historian and social critic.
    The interview was conducted by Ken Belson, a reporter on the New York Times who speaks Japanese and was part of a team that was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for their coverage of the earthquake and tsunami disaster of 2011. Also present in the interview, conducted during Inose’s recent visit to New York, was Hiroko Tabuchi, a Japanese-born writer for the New York newspaper.
    A spokesman for Tokyo 2020 said that they are reviewing the matter but fully respect the IOC guidelines for the Candidate Cities. They also have “utmost respect” for the other cities bidding for the Olympics and Paralympics Games, considering them “friendly rivals under the sublime spirit of the Olympic values, excellence, respect and friendship.”. The IOC are also putting the situation under review and is expected to send a formal letter to Tokyo 2020 asking for an explanation on the interview. Let’s hope a few statements will not unravel all the work and money invested into this bid.

    ● Justice minister criticizes hate speech in Japan but won't punish offenders

    例により「長々と喋られる立派な感想ではなく 簡潔極まる大胆な対策を」で参
    加願います。 よろしく

    Justice Minister Sadakazu Tanigaki denounced the spread of hate speech being used at demonstrations across Japan but stopped short of proposing any legal action against protesters.
    Tanigaki, of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party, addressed the issue at an Upper House Judicial Affairs Committee on May 9.
    "I am very concerned about it. It goes completely against the nation's dignity," he said in response to a question by Yoshifu Arita, an Upper House member of the opposition Democratic Party of Japan.
    Tanigaki did not, however, suggest a future course of action, saying only, "It's a very troubling issue relating to the freedom of speech," and "I'd like to watch closely to see whether such demonstrations will intensify feelings of racial discrimination."

    ………。 Japan became a member of the United Nations International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination in 1995. Article 4 of the convention sets forth provisions calling for the criminalization of hate speech.
    But the Japanese government has suspended the provisions, saying actions to spread or promote the idea of racial discrimination have not been taken in Japan to such an extent that legal action is necessary.

    ●French cultural concerns could clog up the world’s biggest free trade agreement

    France has said it won’t join with the EU in talks over liberalizing trade between the bloc and the USA, unless movies, television and developing online media are made an exception to the free trade agreement.… 

    France insisted that state subsidies and restrictive quotas for movies and TV shows should remain unchanged. The main fear for Paris is that removing trade limitations in the sector would add to existing imbalances. The US now sells far more movies, music and video to the EU than it buys from the bloc. The US share of European cinema screens is estimated at 60%, which compares to about 3-6% that Europe has in the US. Digital and internet services in Europe are also dominated by the US companies. … 

    A trade deal, called the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), would mark the world’s biggest trade agreement. It could make the world’s economic powerhouses even bigger, boosting annual output of the EU by 119 billion euros ($159 billion) and of the US by 95 billion euros according to an EU-commissioned study.

    “An EU-US agreement could potentially represent 400,000 jobs in the EU, so that’s a prize really worth working for,” the Washington Post quotes Irish Enterprise Minister Richard Bruton.

    ●UN calls for end to Egypt violence

    The United Nations has appealed to Egyptians to end the current violence. The Muslim Brotherhood is calling for demonstrations on Sunday, raising fear of fresh clashes.
    In an emergency statement on Saturday, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said preventing further loss of life should be Egyptians' highest priority at this dangerous moment.
    He urged those in the street and those in authority to use maximum restraint and shift immediately to de-escalation.
    More than 800 people have died in clashes between security forces and demonstrators supporting ousted president Mohamed Morsi since Wednesday.
    On Saturday, hundreds of pro-Morsi demonstrators, mainly members of the Muslim Brotherhood, holed up in a mosque in the capital, Cairo. They were forcibly removed by security troops.
    The military-backed interim government is increasingly critical of the Muslim Brotherhood, Morsi's power base, calling its members Islamic extremists. Officials are considering a continued crackdown and may make the group illegal.
    The Muslim Brotherhood said in a statement that peaceful pro-democracy demonstrations have come under attack. It criticized the military for intervening in politics and trying to take Egypt back to 30 to 40 years ago.

    Suicides in Japan exceeded 27,000 last year, making it especially high amongst industrialized nations. In response to this, Dr. Rene Duignan, an Irishman living in Japan, used interviews with people such as specialists on preventing suicide, doctors, and Buddhist priests to create a movie. We pass along his message, carrying his wish to reduce suicides even a little bit if possible.

    ●Japan to protest Fukushima-Olympics cartoons in French weekly

    Japan plans to complain to the French satirical newspaper Le Canard Enchaine after it published cartoons poking fun at Tokyo hosting the 2020 Olympics in the aftermath of the Fukushima nuclear disaster.

    One cartoon published in the Sept. 11 edition of the paper shows two emaciated sumo wrestlers with extra limbs battling it out with nuclear reactors in the background. The caption reads: “Thanks to Fukushima, sumo has become an Olympic sport.”

    Tokyo won the right to host the games for the first time since 1964, after Prime Minister Shinzo Abe flew to Buenos Aires last weekend to give a final presentation to the International Olympic Committee. The last few days of the campaign were dogged by questions about tons of radioactive water leaking into the sea from the crippled Fukushima plant. Abe has vowed to resolve the issue before the games.

    The cartoon was “extremely regrettable,” Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga said Thursday.

    “This kind of cartoon hurts the feelings of those who suffered in the disaster and gives an incorrect impression of the problem of contaminated water at the Fukushima No. 1 power plant,” he told reporters in Tokyo.……。

    ●Japan to introduce internet 'fasting camps' for addicted kids

    Japan is planning to introduce Internet "fasting" camps staffed by education experts who will help children overcome their addiction to the online world.

    More than 500,000 Japanese children between the ages of 12 and 18 are believed to be addicted to the internet, although the ministry of education here says it is difficult to get accurate figures on the scale of the problem.

    "It's becoming more and more of a problem," Akifumi Sekine, a spokesman for the ministry, told The Daily Telegraph. "We estimate this affects around 518,000 children at middle and high schools across Japan, but that figure is rising and there could be far more cases because we don't know about them all."

    The ministry is planning a comprehensive research project into internet addiction in the next fiscal year and has asked the government to fund immersion programmes designed to get children away from their computers, mobile phones and hand-held game devices.

    "We want to get them out of the virtual world and to encourage them to have real communication with other children and adults," Mr Sekine said.

    ●Japan’s controversial new state secrets law condemned as ‘the largest ever threat to democracy in postwar Japan’ by Nobel academics

    Japan’s controversial new state secrets law was condemned Saturday as “the largest ever threat to democracy in postwar Japan” by a group of academics, including two Nobel prize winners, reports said.
    On Friday Japan’s parliament adopted a new law handing out stiffer penalties for those who spill state secrets, despite a public outcry over fears the legislation was draconian and would impinge on press freedom and the public’s right to know.………。

    The law allows government ministers to designate as a state secret information related to defence, diplomacy, counter-intelligence and counter-terrorism.
    Abe has argued that the measure is necessary to plug a notoriously leaky government machine, which prevents its chief ally the United States from sharing intelligence. But critics say the categories are so vague that almost anything could fit the definition.

    They worry that information that is embarrassing to governing politicians or to their patrons could easily be hidden from public view. They point to the way that Tokyo withheld news of the severity of the nuclear disaster at Fukushima in 2011, and say a state that already operates largely behind closed doors will become even more secretive.

    That problem is exacerbated by a relatively weak institutional press. The bill allows for jail terms of up to 10 years for those convicted of leaking state secrets, as well as for those who acquire secrets through illegal means ‎— for example through trespass.
    ……。

    ●Japan's ranking drops to 105th in global gender equality

    (男女平等指数、日本3年連続低下の105位 世界経済フォーラム)

    Japan’s ranking for female equality has fallen a further four places from 101th in 2012 to 105th this year, according to the newly released 2013 Global Gender Gap Report, ranking women's equality in 136 countries.
    The ranking is Japan’s lowest since the World Economic Forum, known for hosting its annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland, started releasing its annual report in 2006. The survey looks primarily at four key areas: politics, economics, health and education.

    Japan’s decline partly resulted from the Lower House elections in December, when the ratio of female lawmakers fell from 11 percent to 8 percent--dropping the nation’s political standing to 118th. Japan ranked 104th in economics, with women representing only 10 percent of company executives.

    The report, released on Oct. 25, said that Japan is failing to have women more involved in society despite their achieving a high education level.
    Iceland topped the list of the nations achieving the highest level of women's equality for the fifth consecutive year, followed by Finland, Norway, Sweden, the Philippines, Ireland and New Zealand.

    Among other major countries, Germany ranked 14th, South Africa, 17th, Britain, 18th, the United States, 23rd, France, 45th, Russia, 61st, China, 69th, and South Korea, 111th.

    ●Police arrest factory worker over food poisoning

    Police have arrested a 49-year-old employee of Aqlifoods, a subsidiary of food distributor Maruha Nichiro Holdings, on suspicion of lacing products with a pesticide.

    Toshiki Abe is suspected of putting the pesticide malathion in frozen foods at Aqlifoods's Oizumi plant in Gunma on 4 occasions last October.

    Up to 1.5 million times the allowed limit of the substance was detected in 7 kinds of frozen foods, prompting police to investigate.

    More than 2,800 people across Japan complained of health problems after eating the products.
    Police arrested Abe on Saturday after questioning him on a voluntary basis earlier in the day.

    He went missing in the middle of the month after being interviewed by police, but he was found on Friday night in Saitama Prefecture.

    Abe became a contract worker at the Oizumi plant in October 2005 and was part of a production line to make pizzas.

    He has reportedly denied the allegations. He says he doesn't remember carrying out the acts in question.

    ●UN urges states not to recognize Crimea annexation

    The UN General Assembly has voted for a resolution calling on the international community not to recognize any alteration in the status of Crimea.

    A special session of the 193-member assembly approved on Thursday the text submitted by Ukraine and other countries. One hundred nations, including Western countries and Japan, voted in favor while 11, including Russia and Syria, voted against. Fifty-eight, including China, abstained.

    The non-binding resolution does not mention Russia by name. But it urges an end to any action that
    would undermine Ukraine's national unity and territorial integrity through the threat or use of force. It criticizes such action as being inconsistent with the UN Charter.

    Ukrainian interim Foreign Minister Andriy Deshchytsia said he is glad that an overwhelming majority of nations supported the resolution. He added that he hopes for stronger international support to help Ukraine resist Russian aggression.

    Russian Ambassador to the UN Vitaly Churkin justified his country's annexation of Crimea, saying residents of the region approved of incorporation into Russia.

    The resolution echoes a draft text, which was presented to the Security Council earlier this month but vetoed by Russia.

    The General Assembly vote further highlighted the division between Western nations and Russia.

    Protests as Brazil stars arrive at World Cup camp

    Brazil's national squad ran a gauntlet of protesters Monday as they reported for World Cup training against a backdrop of public anger over spending on the tournament.
    "An educator is worth more than Neymar," chanted a group of 200 striking teachers, referring to Brazil's star striker, as the team bus edged through the protesters on its way from Rio de Janeiro's international airport to the base camp.

    Despite a heavy police presence, the demonstrators managed to hold up the team's convoy long enough to plant anti-World Cup stickers on their bus before it finally cleared the throng.

    At the squad's training complex, where they were met by more protests, technical director Carlos Alberto Parreira downplayed the demonstrations and said Brazilians overwhelmingly supported the team.

    "Make of it what you will, I believe the team is the cultural and sporting heritage of the Brazilian people. The people are going to support the team throughout the World Cup, I don't have the slightest doubt of that. No one is against the 'selecao,'" said Parreira, who coached Brazil's 1994 World Cup-winning team.……

    ●Tokyo assemblywoman subjected to sexist abuse from other members
    Incident widely criticised after sexist heckling by unidentified assemblymen thought to be from Liberal Democratic party.

    The incident drew criticism from across the political spectrum after unidentified male assembly members, all thought to belong to the conservative Liberal Democratic party (LDP), shouted abuse at Ayaka Shiomura as she questioned the city administration's commitment to helping pregnant women and young mothers, as Japan attempts to tackle its low birthrate.

    One shouted: "You're the one who should get married as soon as possible." Another asked if she was able to have children, prompting laughter among other male councillors.

    Colleagues of Shiomura, a 35-year-old member of the centre-right Your party, demanded that the hecklers be identified and punished. The LDP's Tokyo chapter did not deny the remarks were made but said there was insufficient evidence to punish individual councillors.

    The outbursts are an embarrassment to the prime minister and leader of the LDP, Shinzo Abe, who is pushing to increase the number of women in senior positions in business and improve Japan's poor standing in global gender equality rankings.

    The chief cabinet secretary, Yoshihide Suga, said the behaviour of LDP representatives in the Tokyo assembly was not a reflection of the party's national policies. He added: "If there were comments of a sexist nature, I would like the assembly to clean up its act."

    The health minister, Norihisa Tamura, whose portfolio includes promoting women in the workplace, said the abuse was "deeply disrespectful to women". Masako Mori, the minister responsible for tackling the low birthrate, described the comments as "totally unacceptable".

    Shiomura and her party colleagues were unable to identify the hecklers, but said the comments had originated in a section of the assembly chamber occupied by members of the LDP.……

    The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, Navi Pillay, has said there is a "strong possibility" that Israel is violating international law and may be committing war crimes in Gaza.
    "There seems to be a strong possibility that international law has been violated, in a manner that could amount to war crimes," she said, alluding to Israel's house demolitions and killing of children.
    Pillay is to open an emergency debate at the Human Rights Council in Geneva on the situation in Gaza after raising concerns about Israel's precautions in conflict and respect for proportionality.……

    The Palestinian health ministry says that 2,016 Palestinians have been killed since it began, including 541 children and 250 women.
    The Israeli authorities say 64 Israeli soldiers have been killed, along with two Israeli civilians and a Thai national.……
    Delegates from Israel and the Islamist group Hamas are continuing negotiations for a lasting truce. But informed sources say the talks are proceeding with difficulty.

    ●Down's syndrome baby: Thai surrogate mother of 'abandoned' twin Gammy will keep him – and says she doesn't blame Australian couple

    Displaying a generosity of spirit in rank contrast to the apparent callousness of the Australian couple who abandoned a Down's syndrome baby born to a Thai surrogate mother, the young woman has declined offers to adopt him, announcing that she intends to bring him up herself.

    The offers – along with donations of, as of last night, more than A$164,000 (£90,780) – were made by well-wishers following publicity about the plight of six-month-old Gammy, who was spurned by his biological parents after Pattharamon Janbua, 21, gave birth to twins. The couple, who have not been named, took Gammy's healthy twin sister back to Australia.

    Their actions have sparked revulsion around the world, and prompted Thai authorities to crack down on the previously unregulated surrogacy industry. With commercial surrogacy banned at home, hundreds of Australian couples travel to Thailand each year to arrange surrogate births through local clinics and agents.……。

    ●Man admits killing Kobe girl, his lawyer says   
    KOBE – The man arrested on suspicion of killing a 6-year-old girl in Kobe has confessed to the crime, his lawyer said Tuesday.

    Yasuhiro Kimino, an unemployed resident of the city who was arrested last month, had initially remained silent over the allegation that he murdered Mirei Ikuta, a first-grader at a local elementary school.

    The lawyer, who visited Kimino on Monday evening, quoted him as saying he had admitted to the crime during questioning by Kobe prosecutors. His confession is believed to have been videotaped.
    The lawyer said he did not hear details of the confession from Kimino but believes his client also admitted to the charge of abandoning the girl’s dismembered body.

    The 47-year-old was arrested Sept. 24 for allegedly abandoning the girl’s remains after body parts w
    ere found near his home. Kimino was served a fresh arrest warrant on Oct. 14 on suspicion of murder.
    Prosecutors and police are now looking into the motive behind the killing and whether there had been any previous contact between Kimino and the victim.

    The police suspect he killed Mirei at or near his home on Sept. 11, the day she went missing after school, or in the days that followed.……

    Japanese police nab Islamic State aspirants

    Tokyo police are questioning some Japanese men on suspicion of preparing to join the Islamic State militants in Syria. They have searched premises related to the men for evidence.
    One of them, 26 years old man, has been absent from Hokkaido University, a national university in northern Japan.

    The police say the student planned to go to Syria to become a member of the Islamic State. The Islamic extremist group has been expanding its power in Iraq and Syria.
    He is suspected of violating the penal code section that bans individuals from preparing or plotting to fight against a foreign country. Violators face imprisonment for up to 5 years.

    The student reportedly planned to get to Syria by applying for a job in the country. He reportedly told investigators that he wanted to join the Islamic State.
    This is the first time that Japanese citizens have been found to be trying to join the Islamic State.

    ●Shinzo Abe vs. ISIS : Japan's Military Goes Abroad?

    第2の後藤さん出さない為の斬新の対策は。

    Japan has long advocated for a peaceful status of neutrality. The recent beheadings by ISIS might make Tokyo think twice about that.
    As the horror of the beheadings of two Japanese hostages sinks in, the debate not only about what might have been done to prevent the killings, but also what Tokyo should do moving forward is gaining momentum. For Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, the lesson to be learned is that Japan needs to strengthen its capabilities to protect its citizens from hostile situations abroad, and also take on a greater role in international military operations with allied nations. For others, however, their concern is more about avoiding such situations in the future and keeping its citizens out of harm’s way to begin with.
    Bound by its 1947 constitution to mobilize troops solely for self-defense purposes, Abe has been trying to push through a legal revision that would allow the Self Defense Force to take a more active role in peacekeeping beyond its own borders……
