Quote:
"Yonaguni, with three tiny villages and a small airport, is Japan’s
westernmost point, a place from which Taiwan is visible on a clear day. It
is also the closest spot of inhabited land to the Senkakus
"Opponents also say they fear the soldiers would scare away what they see as
the island’s best chance for an economic future — investors and tourists
from vibrant Taiwan, just 65 miles away, which has been rapidly gaining on
Japan in terms of economic development.
