Greetings from AJW, Emperor Akihito and Empress Michiko visited the Minamata Disease Municipal Museum in Kumamoto Prefecture, a place associated with government policies that destroyed thousands of lives, tore apart families and left hundreds still seeking redress. They heard the experiences of people affected by the worlds world case of mercury poisoning over 57 years ago. * Imperial couple visits Minamata for the first time * U.S. inspectors say Marines neglected Osprey maintenance * Urination using smartphone apps, cheap spy cameras on the rise * Abe tells SDF officers: Presence alone does not serve as deterrence * 170 players compete in Moscow go tournament * Seoul says Japan needs its consent to exercise collective defense in peninsula region * North Korea to open 14 new special economic zones to attract foreign investment We will post these stories and more later today on AJW.asahi. Thanks for reading AJW.
