A 300-Ton Chinese 'Mega-Trash' Washes Up in Ishikawa, and Japan Foots the Bill
A roughly 300-ton hose-like object bearing a Chinese manufacturer's name washed ashore in Ishikawa, with a ~50-million-yen removal bill set to be covered by public money. Commenters demanded China be billed, traded practical disposal ideas, and a minority pushed back with 'Japan caused trouble abroad too.' The figures are unverified beyond the cited reports.
