Cross Culture Problem

Recently, we often watch the news about whaling problem. Japan and other countries have opinions which opposed to each other.



Japanese have eaten a whole since the Jomon period. And now, Japanese get a whole to examine in the Antarctic Ocean. So Japanese are accustomed to get a whole. But other countries people can not understand Japanese actions.



Now, Japanese and other countries people hold the meeting(IWC) to talk about a wholing in future. However, both opinions are opposing. They are aiming to agree on both opinions. Next meeting are going to hold in this June.



I think this problem is very difficult and cultural problem caused this problem. I want to notice this priblem.



I read the ASAHI newspaper on the Internet.

  1. I agree with you.
    I think it is vewry nervous problem in the world. Each coountry have each opinion, but they don't agree other country's opinion. It means that they have own opinion, so they don't want to give up each opinion.
    However, it is no time to have opinions very strong. We have to think about making good communication whole of the world!!!
    Your statement is very interested for me. Thank you♪

  2. This problem is very difficult. This problem was had a talk for long time.
    The whale hunting was not good thing because whale is now declining. But, I think whale hunting is Japanese culture too.
