    Akashi is a fair minded person who is not afraid to call a spade a spade unlike most other dignitaries who are totally biased and come with pre-conceived notions. The Govt must not take him for granted.

    Nodrog, True Akashi is a fair mined person, But he will never call a spade a spade. He only smiles. He always keeps smiling when the SL officials tell nice things (not the truths) about what they are doing . Honestly, I don't know why he keeps coming here.

    as a country that had to re-build itself after a war Japan understands the difficulties we face. But their patience also has limits which the govt should not test or else we will lose another good friend.

    Constantly reminds of the school inspectors who use to come to classes during our school days. Checks whether everything is ok or not and reports to powers that be; of course for a fee.

    Japan is too organised. It becomes a bit boring after a while. Akashi likes a break to witness some mess.
