30 years ago, at 5:46 am, on January 17th, the Great Hanshin Awaji Earthquake hit Hyogo Prefecture and the surrounding area. I still remember a woman whom I had known for a very long time. I know his daughter. She goes to medical school. Her mother was a college student. I have known other people who were affected by the earthquake. It was such a terrible incident. My prayers go to the victims.

People may think that I'm a racist. I'd like to invite John Aziz, as a guest, to speak with me and discuss various topics with him. John Aziz is half Palestinian, half Scottish. He's an outspoken critic of Hamas and Hamas supporters. David Atherton, a journalist, is coming to my podcast as a guest on February 11th. As I said, Lindsey Laveen, a chemical engineer is coming to my podcast on January 22nd. I'm arranging the dates with several people whom I would like as a guest or to collaborate with. Isaac Oron, whom I talked about on my podcast, was born in Jaffa, Israel. Well, that reminds me of a fruit sweetie. Jaffa is a city where there are Jewish and Arab population. He's a New Zealander. People from my area, meaning the Asia Pacific region. On January 26th, Dr. Josef Olmert is having another interview with me. I'm really sorry that I missed the first one. I'll succeed in the podcasting this time.

Lastly, I have toned down and spoke about the decision on January 3rd. Again, the decision made by POTUS Biden was corrupt. As People's Republic of China is a huge threat to Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and nations of the U.S. Allies in South China Sea as the new coming Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated in the confirmation hearing. The order Biden made is not just about a corporation. Ultimately, the United States will have strong economic alliance to fight against Chinese loan sharking and exploitations.

There was another appalling incident. Cliveland-Cliff's CEO's statement of the lesson to Japan. "Japan has never learned anything form 1945?" Does he understand who are saying this? Acutually, China and North Korea love this narrative. His statement is totally baseless and humiliating. Also, don't blame Japan on something China has been developing such as dumping or overcapacity production. Maybe, to people like this, it is not important. Japan cares one thing, actually, among many things about the U.S. I've told this on my podcast. On the 21st, I'm inviting a guest, Leonard Grunstein. He often writes on the Times of Israel blog. His posts there are very interesting and inspiring to read.

I'd like to refrain from speaking about hostages. I just pray that they all come back. I didn't say this on my podcast, but while there are Palesitnians, who are screaming to repeat October 7th, the Japanese news were saying, "Palestinians are joyful for peace." Well, obviously, they don't include "inconvenient news" in articles or broadcastings.
