Abe's gift to Trump manufactured by Chinese company
By Yin Xiaohong (People's Daily Online) 16:16, November 23, 2016

The gift offered by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to U.S. President-elect Donald Trump during their recent meeting was made by a branch of a Chinese company in Japan, Japanese media reported.

As the first foreign leader to meet Trump since the election, Abe presented Trump with a golden golf club to reinforce mutual trust. However, the club was manufactured by a company that, while originally Japanese, has since been acquired by a Chinese enterprise. Honma Golf Ltd. was acquired in 2010 due to operational hardships.

Tomoo Marukawa, a professor at the University of Tokyo, argued that this fact could actually give the present more significance. By offering a gift that represents globalization to a man who encourages protectionism, the golf club could be viewed as a concealed warning from Japan.

Sports Hochi, a Japanese news site, commented wryly that the gift had clearly faciliated communication, since the scheduled 45-minute meeting continued for 90 minutes.

Sneaking Abe.

Then, throughout his presidency, Trump must stay on high alert when dealing with this guy.

Honmas are handmade in Japan, they are very expensive...

Most Japanese politicians are sneaky bastards

Yukio Hatoyama wasnt that bad.

The worst in recent memory is Shinzo Abe and Janichiro Koizumi.

The worst fcuker was the governor of Tokyo Shintaro Ishihara.

That's the reason Yukio was ousted.....

Stationing American troops in Japan will lead to bloody tragedy – ex-PM of Japan

Ha ha ha.
Outwardly looks Japanese but internally it is Chinese.
Let not harp on this too much. Let's say both are Confucian societies.

I really like how these two are able spin the news.
This is brilliant, changing something negative into a positive.
Very well done!

Exactly, in his own brilliant diplomatic symbolism, Mr. Abe was probably giving a message to Trump that there was no escaping from economic globalization.
