ABSTRACT

My goodness! Isn't it amazing! When you view Japan very selectively, considering only those sectors that are outstanding and focusing on the aspects that are best, and then embellish the whole lot, Japan looks like No. 1. But, when you take the overall situation, all sectors good and bad, including all aspects good and bad, the result is strikingly different. It turns out that the wonderland we have heard so much of, and which we visited briefly in the introduction, was not only too good to be true, it wasn't true at all.
