things that bang in the night, page-56

brewster, agree japan seems to be a shrinking violet economically... their central bank do seem to be dh's... economy is finally growing slowly after a few years of negative interest rates, and the BPJ is real keen to increase rates again... specially after seeing the effect of the last rise???!!!

But, relevant to your main point, Japan actually has a surprisingly robust economic relationship with China - for gotten the figure, but something like 30% of Japans trade is with China, and they are doing ok with taiwan, SKorea and Thailand. Its worth checking if you're interested, it surprised me given their military history.

cheers!
