Wired News: Cheaper Net Access In Japan?
The japanese government is slowly coming around to the idea that by lowering exorbitant telephone charges, japan could gain longterm benefits from increased Internet use. David Lazarus reports from Tokyo. Wired News
http://www.wired.com/news/business/0,1367,20282,00.html

Extractions: 12:00 PM Jun. 17, 1999 PT TOKYO After effectively strangling Internet use in Japan through stratospheric access fees, the Japanese government finally is gearing up to introduce flat-rate dial-up charges, major newspapers here say. The move could significantly boost Internet use in Japan, which has been uncharacteristically slow to embrace a new technology. But Net users in Japan shouldn't hold their breath awaiting a break in prices. Flat-rate access likely won't be introduced before 2001, Japan's premier business newspaper Nihon Keizai reported on Wednesday. "There's a lot of resistance to change," said Chris Bryden, chief technical adviser for Sunnynet, an Okinawa-based Internet service provider. "It can take years for a decision to be made." Still, the change was inevitable. Japanese officials have been wringing their hands in recent years over the country's tortoise-paced approach to information technology, and have fretted that Japan is in danger of being left in the digital dust.

government posters that capitalized on changed American attitudes following japan's attack on Pearl Harbor and America's entry into WWII.
http://www.click2history.com/forgotten_posters/forgotten_posters_ch1.htm

Extractions: Millions of photographs document the events of World War II. From President Roosevelt signing the Declaration of War against Japan to General MacArthur making good his promise, "I shall return," national archives and personal scrapbooks are filled with the pictorial record. Much less known, however, are the posters that dominated American life during the war. Created to encourage motivate and caution U.S. military and civilians, many of the posters also send strong messages . Some historians have suggested they were Americas version of propaganda. From the Statue of Liberty in chains (with the subtitle " Never! ") to a suggestion that "foxy foreign ideas brought poverty, suffering and defeat to Europe," posters reminded Americans what the fight was about while they chided members of the military to maintain silence about U.S. plans.

CNN - Japanese Prime Minister To Rule With Minority Government - November 7, 199
CNN.com
http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/9611/07/japan.politics/

Extractions: Web posted at: 12:15 p.m. EST (1715 GMT) From Correspondent May Lee TOKYO (CNN) Japanese Prime Minister Ryutaro Hashimoto easily won a second term in office Thursday, but his biggest challenge is just beginning: ruling the nation with a minority government. Hashimoto received 262 votes in the 500-member lower house of Parliament, largely due to a loose alliance his conservative Liberal Democratic Party formed with its old allies, the Social Democrats and the tiny Sakigake party. In lower house elections last month, the LDP failed to secure a majority. But no party, not even its former coalition partners the Social Democrats and Sakigake, will agree to formally join a new coalition. "The main reason why (LDP is) having difficulties finding partners is because everybody knows the decisions that will be made over 12 to 24 months will be very, very difficult decisions," political analysts Keith Henry said. Henry specifically said deregulation, administrative reform and economic recovery are key issues facing the government.
