Where is Japan headed under Takaichi's far-right agenda?

Frank Yang

Through hostile rhetoric and policies, Takaichi is creating animosity between Japan and its neighbors and conditions for possible conflict, hurting trade ties and alienating its people from people of neighboring countries. By choosing dangerous military expansion at the cost of people's livelihood, she is dragging Japan to the edge of the abyss. The sword of Damocles is hanging over Japan and northeast Asia. The consequences could be disastrous for Japan, the region and even the world, if Takaichi slips further down the road.

LegCo election highlights significance of people's welfare after fire

Grenville Cross

The days when certain legislators danced to the tune of the West and sought to harm their own city are long since gone, and the new breed of legislators can be trusted to put Hong Kong first.

HKSAR's LegCo election charts new course for development

The successful completion of the eighth-term Legislative Council (LegCo) election of China's Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) represents far more than a routine political event.

Japan's fallacies have become an obstacle to China-Japan relations

Takaichi's claim that "a Taiwan contingency is a Japan contingency" is an absurd one that tries to cross the red line of China's core interests.

Japan must not forget China's goodwill gestures

The Chinese people love peace and cherish the hard-won situation of Sino-Japanese friendship, but this cherishing has a bottom line. If Japan continues to race down the path of treachery and continues to squander the goodwill of the Chinese people, then what it ultimately reaps will inevitably be a harsh judgment of history and a heavy price in reality.

The political maneuvering behind the Xiaohongshu ban
