Japan remembers war dead 78 years after end of World War Two | NHK WORLD-JAPAN News

It?s always a contentious issue for the JRF isn?t it, especially considering how much the Emperor Hirohito was involved in the run-up to WW2 and during the war and just after it. That doesn?t mean that the war dead should not be honoured by the IF of course.

On October 15th, Emperor Naruhito and Empress Masako began a 2-day visit to Ishikawa Prefecture for the "Ishikawa Hyakumangoku Cultural Festival 2023," which is the unified name for the 38th National Cultural Festival and the 23rd National Art & Cultural Festival for People with Disabilities.

The IF canceled the public New Year greetings on the balcony due to the earthquake.  There is speculation that the appearance might be made next month for the Emperor's birthday.

That is understandable. Japan has had a terrible beginning to 2024 and there can?t be public appearances on the balcony while dead bodies are still being recovered from wrecked buildings. The Emperor?s birthday will be better, so long as there are no further earthquakes.
