Tokyo on Fire!Nationalism, US-Japan Bromance, and Premium Friday | Tokyo on FireThis week on Tokyo on Fire: A nationalist kindergarten has sparked a scandal which has put the Abe administration in danger. The controversial school teaches students pre-war era ideologies, and has been heavily criticized for referring to Korean and Chinese nationals as “those with wicked ideas” and calling the latter “Shinajin”, which is a derogatory word for Chinese people. Will Prime Minister Abe make it through the scandal? The first weeks of the Trump Presidency have been rocky to say the list.

The atmosphere has changed substantially since the U.S. election results and the official visit of to Tokyo might be a little more awkward than expected.

PM Abe is pushing pretty hard with the relocation of the Futenma US base on Okinawa to Henoko, something that each Prime Minister has juggled for the last 20 years. Unsurprisingly enough, there's a good bit of hush-hush attitudes around this information, with the LDP's Yamamoto Ichita leading the charge to quiet dissenters. In other news, one of Shinjuku's most...2016-04-1940 minTokyo on Fire!Troubles at Home and Abroad | Tokyo on FireAbe and his Cabinet received an onslaught of criticism this week, with opposition parties seizing the chance to highlight the secretive nature of TPP talks and the LDP's reluctance to announce the Government's Pension Investment Fund (GPIF) figures.
