'Japan Model' Has Beaten Coronavirus, Shinzo Abe Declares

[Mr Rager]

Sweep it under the rug and get back to Olympics preparations? Great model, Japan!

 

[Mr Rager]

This and the lesson learned from SARS. Same reason South Korea got that shyt fully under control, because both the government and citizens were fully prepared and dedicated to the necessity of quarantining.

That and the ability to better organize the response procedures between national and prefecture-level government, ON TOP of responsible and responsive citizens.
America could never.

Like I said to someone else, we can’t even agree to do anything for the common good. Repairing a train tunnel into nyc that is deteriorating, is a political issue. The entire eastern seaboard goes through there. It’s dysfunctional to the extreme.

not sure i would use a terrible, union/mafia overrun government project as an example read up on the Big Dig here in massachusetts, if you dont understand why its a political issue

 

[altruicsense]

They lie about their testing numbers...

I'm using it as one because our infrastructure is one thing that shouldn't be. Even if it wasn't for the union/mafia, it would still be. I've been stuck on a train for hours, because we had to wait for some guys with sledgehammers to arrive so they could knock the 100 year old bridge black in place.

I do not like Shinzo Abe, yet I am a fair person and must say his administration's effectiveness in epidemic prevention has certainly been impressive. Far more impressive than the hysterical, scary babies who screamed and continue to scream about "weeks away" and the Olympics, only to continue to be shown wrong.

 

[Xcoyote]

East Asia outperformed Westerners,where is the lie here?

Been here 5 years and this is your first post?

Who's alias is this?

I knew Japanese were different during Fukushima disaster. They were cool, calm and collected. Everybody following orders, standing in line patiently and generally not wilding out.

I was like if this was the U.S, we would have been wilding out in the lines.

 

[Dorian Breh]

I mean Shinzo Abe is a lying authoritarian nationalist. Him wrapping himself in a Japanese victory flag isn't anything but propaganda and political masturbation.

 

[duckbutta]

Yep, all facts.

Also, East Asian countries have a collectivist mentality where they are more likely to follow the rules in order to help their fellow citizens.

Americans by and large have an individualistic mentality. Most only care about "me and mines" .

More likely to follow the rules or more likely to get shot and killed by communist leaders for not following the rules

More likely to follow the rules or more likely to get shot and killed by communist leaders for not following the rules

many of those countries have never been communist (e.g Japan, South Korea, Taiwan,Singapore)

 

[duckbutta]

Define communist ?

 

[F K]

Define communist ?

adhering to the philosophies of marxist thought and publicly espousing that affiliation and ideology.

I have a hard time believing that two us protectorate states were allowed to be communist during the cold war.

That's China and North Korea. Other East Asian countries aren't communist (South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Mongolia).
