The bonds between Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Japan runs deep, ever since the 1950s when the formal relations and development was in earnest. Saudi Arabia, to us, always is a nation associated with : Faith, Credibility, Land of Purity, Land of the Prophet Muhammad, The Gateway to the Near-east.
@al-Hasani , I do wish and hope to see peace between Palestine and Israel. That is an issue that we all yearn for and all sides should actively strive for. Right now, we should also pray and hope for a return to a sense of calm in the Levant and the ravages of war that has affected so many innocent people. The Middle East is such a beautiful land, home to an ancient people, a beautiful culture, glorious history (pre-Islamic, Islamic). I pray and hope for a return to calm, to peace.
Inshallah.
Thank you for the warm words my friend.
Japan is an ancient civilization as well with clever, innovative, peaceful and hard-working people. Japan is seen as a inspiration in the Arab world (alongside China) as a country that in a very short time span managed to develop tremendously on all fields. Especially in terms of science and technology. Despite Japan's relatively isolated location which has both been an advantage and disadvange throughout history it is now a major world power and the 3 biggest economy in the world. This is something that you can only admire a lot.

Also I must say that the traditional clothing for men in Japan has a resemblance with the one found in KSA and other areas of the Arab world and similarly the colorful clothing in Japan for females is something that is also found in the Arab world among women.
Let alone Japanese fondness of swords. Similarities in clan structure as well.
