Prince Akishino is Not Looking at People's Side: Journalist's Contribution

  (The main article is here .) Kyodo News editor Kenichi Ohki contributed an article to the Japanese online news site Gendai Business on December 12, criticizing the remarks made by Prince Akishino at his birthday press conference released last November 30. He pointed out that Akishino is not fully accountable to the people outside of the Imperial Family and is only trying to protect the "inside" rather than the "outside.”   Note: In my previous blog, I pointed out that in the same press conference, there was not a single word of sympathy for the people suffering from the Corona disaster, which I feel is the same root as the contents of Mr. Ohki's argument.   The following is an introduction to Mr.Ohki’s article.
