Yes, we ARE living in the closed society - most of Japanese don't
understand what CNN, BBC, ZDF, Antenne 2, CCTV or KBS say. 
Accessibility should be defined by how people can understand the
contents - not by what people can see and hear.

Well UK (or the federation of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern
Ireland) and Ireland are also $@Eg9q(J or island nations - and UK is
acting very much diplomatic and still is one of the leader of the
world - so being a $@Eg9q(J or an island nation does not necessarily mean
being a closed nation.

 |YES! Welcome to Zhipangu: The shikata-ga-nai-no-kuni!
 |Everything you want to do and cannot, you will hear a shikata-ga-nai...

The shikata-ga-nai syndrome itself proves why Japan is more communist
than any other countries. The government does not have to educate the
ideology of authoritarianism (sp?)... well, I might be a bit too
sarcastic. :)

It's NOT the media, or the educaion, or the government - it's the
society itself to force people to think your closest neighbors more
important than others (e.g. other countries).
