As you may know, Japanese prime ministers change one after another. Mr. Aso took the seat of prime minister after two former prime ministers’ resigns.
He was elected by LDP (Liberal Democratic Party) members. Almost all the people can’t vote when a prime minister is elected, but only ruling party legislators can.
They elect their boss, and then drag him down. I guess you would think Japanese people are packs of mutts.
Japanese people don’t attempt a coup d’état nor an assassination. Japanese people are meek, docile and quiet. I sometimes watch people in other countries rise against wanton treatment on TV. If that energetic people immigrated to Japan, Japan would be occupied by them. I think Japanese politicians may know that, so they ban immigration from other countries.

Thank you.
Yuri, I've seen a lot of corrections people have made, and some corrections have been very poorly done.

I would like to make corrections and suggestions and pointers, but I sit for the bar exam to become a lawyer tomorrow, the day after, and the day after that. If you have the patience, I would like to come back and make corrections after that.

Additionally, I was once an editor of an academic publication, so I am quite qualified to edit English documents for content, style, and grammar.

In any case, may everyone have a wonderful three days. That's the next time I'll be here, and the next three days will be terrible and terrifying for me.
