One of the best shots I've seen of an itinerant Japanese pipe-seller-fixer-upper-cleaner, and parts supplier.....with his tools in hand, and at his feet ! Photo attributed to SHINICHI SUZUKI, AND dated to about 1873. Japan and Tobacco go together like cold whipped cream on a pumpkin pie. Okinawa_Soba has been to more than one Japanese get-together where he was the only male not smoking. Most recently it was at a restaurant where 50 of us were eating, drinking, talking, giving speeches, and (except for me)....chain smoking. I excused myself and left early as the thick haze in the air started to make me feel sick, and my "photographer's eyes" were starting to burn. Okinawa_Soba is a real wimp ! Wine and women have the opposite effect on me, though (thank God). Speaking of women. The twisted inner workings of Japan's inscrutable bureaucracy appointed (in recent times) the head of JAPAN TOBACCO to also head up the MINISTRY OF HEALTH. Any other civilized nation in the world might see a "conflict of interest" in that arrangement, but...not Japan. When one of the up-and-coming female department heads in the Ministry of Health launched a NO SMOKING campaign, he immediately had her fired from her position in the ministry, and banished never to return. When it comes to the Japanese and their over-riding love of all things tobacco, there are endless stories to tell such as the above absurdity. I heard one reporter who was covering the annual G8 Summit Meeting say, "Why is it always ONLY the Japanese Prime Ministers who are the chain smokers?" Why, when Okinawa_Soba was conducting a two-week business tour in the USA for three Japanese business men, did we have to stop our no-smoking Rent-a-Car on the interstates every 15 minutes so that they all could take a smoking break --- getting us to every destination hours behind schedule...every day Search "JAPAN SMOKING" on any search engine, and you will have enough stories and statistics to keep you busy. Here's just a few stats you can find anywhere on Japan as a CIVILIZED nation, and they will all differ according to source : # The tobacco market is controlled by just a few corporations - namely American, British and JAPANESE multinational conglomerates. # About 51% of men smoke in Japan - this figure has dropped from the 1980s, but it is still very high for a developed nation. In specific regions of Japan, the numbers are as high as 70%. # Prevalence of smoking among women, once considered almost taboo, has risen dramatically in the last decade to nearly 10% on average, with some regions and occupations as much as 25 % or more. # Japan's Finance Ministry is a major shareholder in Japan Tobacco, a multinational. # A survey in the early 1990s found that 44% of male physicians smoke in Japan. NOTE: 26 years ago, when my daughter was born in one of the best maternity hospitals in Japan, I noticed that the chain-smoking Doctor was not keeping his habit to himself, but was instead blowing his smoke all over the newborns in the "display room" as chain-smoking relatives stood in the hall and looked at their future chain-smoking little Samurai and Geisha Girls. Talk about Smoked Ham. The wrinkled little babies (including my own!) were getting smoked and cured like a side of pork in a Hickory House. In my normal blunt fashion --- devoid of all diplomacy and respect, and IN FRONT OF HIS NURSING STAFF --- I ripped the doctor for being a FAKE, FRAUD, and a QUACK, devoid of common sense, using a phony M.D. License from a Joke Store, and having absolutely NO understanding, consideration, or care for the babies he was delivering. Two of the Japanese nurses hid their faces, and one ducked behind the nursing station. I was well aware that in Japan, Doctors are accorded the status of GOD. However, to any foreigner who knows better, we understand that they are more like (and protected like) the Old Emperor in classic children's story, THE EMPEROR'S NEW CLOTHES --- embarrassingly BUTT NAKED. So much for being God. The very next time I showed up at the hospital, the entire place was plastered with NO SMOKING signs. My second daughter was born there in smoke-free peace. THE YAKUZA The only trouble I had was outside the hospital, where I parked my car in spot that (unbeknownst to me) was reserved for the head of the local YAKUZA gang. When his henchmen came out and menacingly told me to MOVE IT (complete with having-my-throat-cut gestures thrown at me) I told them (politely) I was leaving it right there, and that if they bombed my car, or if it was not there when I got back from seeing my kid born, they would regret it. LONG STORY SHORT... I parked there every day until my wife and newborn daughter went home. I later met the "Head Honcho" in his hideout, thanked him for the use of his "pirated" public parking space, and took 3-D photos of his tattoos as well. God Bless Japan. More stats.... # With 500,000 cigarette vending machines, the young can easily buy cigarettes. Recently, some regions of Japan are putting "shut down" timers on vending machines to prevent under-age kids from using the machines from (for example) 11 PM to 6 AM. # Lung cancer is the leading cancer, with more than 50,000 deaths a year. # More Japanese men die of lung cancer than suicide. The rate of lung cancer deaths is 46 per 100,000 people while the suicide rate is 30 per 100,000. # Japan has some of the weakest anti-tobacco laws for a developed nation, with few smoke-free public areas.
