Could I interview someone at Japan Society in New York? I am updating my father's research from The Economist including surveys he did with Romano Prodi. In 1988 Norman Macrae earned the Emperor's Order of Rising Sun for his continuous support from 1962 of Japan and East-West trading models that went beyond the era of colonial trade. I believe that the role Japan (and indeed Emperor and Royal families) play in the world up to the 2020 Olympics (and in choosing human capital partners during the AI decade) is now even more critical to human sustainability than the period up to the 1964 Olympics when Prince Charles first invited Akio Morita to inward invest in Wales - norman macrae foundation Bethesda MD www.normanmacrae.net
