BREAKING: #MauritiusOilDisaster 🇲🇺🇯🇵 Japan's #TBS reports that 🇲🇺GoM has demanded 🇯🇵GoJ to pay approx. 3.2 billion yen (1.2 billion MUR) for "漁業支援費" (fisheries assistance cost). Final compensation amount for #Wakashio owner is still to be determined news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/502bf…
This "fisheries assistance cost" will be allocated for the purchase of 100 near-sea fishing boats from 🇯🇵Japan and 🇱🇰Sri Lanka. The economic & ecological damage is still being assessed for full compensation.
CORRECTION: Japanese media has deliberately reported that 🇲🇺GoM has DEMANDED 🇯🇵GoJ to PAY. But in fact it was a REQUEST FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE. Japanese media has falsely reported that GoM is demanding this "assistance cost" as compensation. Japanese public is going furious.
🇵🇸🇯🇵In light of situation in #Gaza, a small patisserie in #Tokyo has decided, “after long, long, contemplation”NOT TO OFFER 🎄Xmas cakes this year. Instead, they will be offering this special Prayers for Peace (平和の祈り)🕊️🍰 cake. Owner explained the background in her thread.
1/ [For everyone who has been expecting our announcement on Christmas cakes]
Thank you so much for your patience.
Our heart is finally set.
We are going to tell you a not-so-bright story, although its about Christmas cakes. We think it is impossible to make things bright without talking about not-so-bright matters, so we would be happy if you could read it til the end.
@GlobeEyeNews The author of the original Yahoo! article (professor at TUFS) checked the PSIA page to confirm this was true. HAMAS was no longer on the list of terrorist/armed groups, along with Taleban and 181 other organizations. 9 groups were added and 183 removed. moj.go.jp/psia/ITH/organ…
