From Cool Japan Journal vol. 8, we present the 13th interview with an Edo-inbound long-established business, round fan, folding fan and Nobuo Yoshida, representative of Ibasen, a Japanese paper manufacturer and seller (CJJ Special Editor), 10 pages in total.
This long-established interview is in the form of a gorgeous dialogue with Mr. Toshihiko Murata, Resident Representative to the United Nations, and Mr. Yoshikazu Hashimoto, a conceptor and marketing professional, as listeners. The "SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals)" were adopted at the UN Summit, and Nihonbashi is the starting point of the 5 highways and the origin of Edo (present-day Tokyo). Sustainable, long-established stores that revive Nihonbashi as many times as possible. Here, important Japanese culture, which can serve as a benchmark for the world in the future, is still alive and well as an asset of Japan.
