Wow. The guy at the ground floor information desk of the Tokyo Regional Immigration Bureau was incredibly rude and unhelpful (rare in Japan). Relieved that was the last time I have to visit that place. #tokyoimmigration #Japan

Wonderful news. A journalist working for an Australian media outlet is finally back on the ground in #China after a 4 year hiatus. Well deserved Will Glasgow. Hopefully more of us can follow (but it won’t be me).
