東京で食う飲む!Restaurant or Bar around Tokyo and Far East. There is a great diversity of food and culture in Japan. You will enjoy the huge range style of food from very local Japanese food to a lot of foreign foods. I hope you will find and feel the diversity of foods in Japan.

Read "Soumission" written by Michel Houellebecq in Far East anew after the massacre in Paris

If the massacre on last Friday would happen on the “Soumission” situation after 2022, what comment will the people talk on the media or SNS? After the peace of Westphalia, the “shape” of Europa have been destroyed and re-constructed again and again. For these several years after Greek crisis, the people of Europa is losing the identity as the citizen of Europa. In addition the population of the Muslim is increasing as the immigrants and refugees from the Middle East area. The immigrants were formed local communities in the countries only with Muslims in the European countries.

What kind of the situation are the citizens in our developed countries? They had the smartphone, convenient fast food, middle to high education, not big but not little income and small number of family. An individual will communicate with other individuals one way through the SNS (as Facebook or twitter) or internet through the smart phone without seeing their voice or face each other. The people in Japan are following the current trends of fashion, food or also politics in the mass media. They have never made decision if like or not, fit them or not, realistic or not. This type of society may be very weak to the sudden and slight terrorist attacks.

Tokyo is one of the most international cities in the world. The major cities of Europa in these days also show the huge diversity in international culture, religious, foods and customs. Francois drank a lot of amount and kinds of liquor or wines and ate broadly international foods, including from the Islamic cultures, in the novel. The restaurant which the terrorist had attacked was the Cambodian restaurant. Fundamentalist would not have the tolerance of the diversity (In the situation in “Soumission”, the Islamic fundamentalist may attack the 2022 Arabic government in France.). On the other hand, the citizens in Europa might enjoy the difference between the original nationalities or cultures in the communities. We should know more about each other on the earth.

The elite in the countries are very frail in their principle, will and social position. Under the Nazi government in Germany or Austria, in the South Korea or in the Post-World War II Japan, the class of elite has converted to the complete opposite side to keep their position or incomes. The pressure from the social awareness, unemployment or promotion will easily break the spirits of the elite.

We should keep our daily life as going to the restaurant or cafe, meeting our friends, going to working by metro or bus as usual, drinking some drinks in bar and watching movies. The terrorist wanted to destroy our daily life and our communities with their despicable attacks. And After enjoying the daily life with grief, then we should think about the farther places as France, Iraq, Sylia and Lebanon etc. Under the dynamic and rapid transition of the world, we should broadly take notice of this Paris massacre to find what we must know and think. We forgot a lot of attacks around Middle East as the Turkey, Lebanon or Iraq. The attacks were not only Paris. To know something, the culture or friends will help us.
