I've been working with some friends on a new project for a travel site on the Internet and trying to acquire domestic promotional videos to be used.
Well, it's been easier said than done.
I have, though, been able to obtain videos from the Japanese government. Though today's particular video is from Internet Archives.
When Junichiro Koizumi was prime minister of Japan, he allocated money to encourage tourism to japan. The project was called, "Yokoso Japan" (Welcome to Japan) and featured many TV programs that were aired all around the world... In fact, I hosted the one about Hiroshima (even though I don't live there!).
Here is the main "trailer" for the series, Yokoso Japan and is a very well made, enjoyable short "trip" to Japan.
Hope you enjoy it!

Comments must be succinct & relevant to the story. Comments are checked frequently and abusive, rude or profane comments will be deleted. I’m just one of many bloggers who answer questions online and sometimes for the press. I usually handle questions about Japan, marketing or the economy, so in those areas I’m more likely to make sense and less likely to say something really stupid. If I post something here that you find helpful or interesting, that’s wonderful. This is my personal blog. If you don't like what you have read here then, just like when you go into a restaurant or bar that allows smoking, if you don't like it, there's something at the front that has hinges on it and it is called a "door."
