It is reported that she also tore up a lost property report belonging to someone nearby.Subsequently, a female police officer from another department intervened to mediate the situation, but the argument escalated, and without confirming the woman's nationality, she made the remark, "Go back to China."The female police officer has expressed remorse, stating that she "became a little emotional." However, the police intend to investigate the incident, including the suspicion of obstructing official duties, regarding the foreign-looking woman who is believed to have torn up the lost property report.EAT THE BUGSSake brewing with cricket yeast Japan in JapanJapan Hopes to Have Nuclear Fuel Cycle Operational by FY24Japan and the WorldG7 ministers meet in Japan to discuss women's empowerment post-COVIDKeidanren to set up committee to help Ukraine with rebuildingAlleged Tech Leak to China 'Just the Tip of the Iceberg'SOCIETY 5.0IMF Announces Single Global Digital Currency in Push to Eliminate CashMy Number ID system faces further setback with erroneous deliveriesOsaka Expo Announces Theme Weeks with SDGs FocusCOVIDDr Vanessa Kerry appointed as WHO Director-General Special Envoy for Climate Change and HealthCHINAIn Argentina, US dollars are so scarce that yuan use is at record high
