Sitting across from me in his office at the Canadian Department of Immigration in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Arthur Miki doesn't look or act like the hard-nosed leader of the Redress movement of two decades ago.
 
Part II: The Danger Of Losing The Past
 
It's quite amazing to find that a country as young as Canada (136 years young) includes events in its history that have already been tucked away and require quite an effort to uncover.
Report
Kyoto costume institute
 
If you happen to be in Kyoto, and need a break from the temples, tea houses and rock gardens, then you might want to consider the Kyoto Costume Institute.
Travel

Culture

A sunshine enveloped terrace, a soft breeze rollicking through open doors, greenery reminiscent of a different time and a different place, the sweet aroma of memories' blossoms.
Column
Sandwiched in Japan
 
I like sandwiches for lunch. I often eat lunch in an allotted time near to my office located in a Café-abundant area of Osaka called Minami-Senba.
