Amazing

So much have been said about Japanese politicians. One thing for sure, they're worth all the respect and admiration. Last week, on my way to the supermarket, I had to pass a short, one way street. When at the other end a farm tractor appeared and stopped to give way to me. I usually see this man, who is a locally elected official, plowing the field. In my home country, not one elected official with big tracts of farm land would ever do that. Even the mere Overseas Filipino Worker or OFW's once home would hire somebody to cook, wash and clean for them. Seems like being elected or having worked abroad have elevated them and freed them from manual chores. Seeing the man with his a bit burnt face is like seeing a real handsome man. Just don't get me wrong he's very much married and I admire the wife too being on his side during the campaign period. Really amazing!

I have a lot of respect for the Japanese people. In my opinion all countries can learn a lot from them. I watched a documentary on recycling in Japan and it was amazing how they find a use for everything.

I was having drinks with friends in a bar in the village, the bar owners car was parked outside & whilst out there smoking I noticed that ever part of it was dented, the lights were broken & there was not one bit of tread left on the tyres, I asked my friends, who know him quite well, how does he get away with driving that into town? The answer, he the mayor of the village laugh rolling on the floor laughing laugh

@Zman, so sorry, then. No politician is a saint but I haven't know anybody who are as blatant here. In my home country, there's a lot like that esp from the provinces. Here's a flower for you and a kiss so you'll forgive me.bouquet bouquet bouquet lips lips
