Vox populi

without comments

Asahi Shinbum’s Vox Populi, Vox Dei column is seldom overtly political, but even thorny political subjects are tackled with its usual aplomb and grace. This is one of the very few newspaper commentaries I actually look forward to reading. Even more remarkable is the fact that it is originally written in the vernacular and then translated into English featuring the following day in the English Language Asahi Shinbum (in Japan it’s included with the International Herald Tribune).

You can see the original Japanese version of the above column here .
