From April 9 to 11, Senator John McCain had visited Tokyo. During the stay, he met the Japanese Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, plus the leader of Democratic Party of Japan. Mr. McCain came here with Senator Lindsey Graham and Senator Amy Klobuchar. That is bipartisan.
The delegation seemed to stay only in Tokyo.
If I were one of policy makers in the Aso administration, I would suggest Prime Minister and Foreign Minister to take Senator McCain to City of Yokohama, Kanagawa to see "Hama Wing," wind power generation facing the harbor.
The rotor diameter is 80m and the tower is about 78m tall. Its operation started from April 2007. Yokohama city officials say it would provide enough power for 860 homes. VESTAS made the wind turbine.
Do you remember the relation between Mr. McCain and VESTAS?
On May 12 last year, Mr. McCain as U.S. Presidential Candidate visited the headquarters of VESTAS Americas in Portland, Oregon. He delivered a speech in front of VESTAS' employees.
"Like other environmental challenges -- only more so -- global warming presents a test of foresight, of political courage, and of the unselfish concern that one generation owes to the next. We need to think straight about the dangers ahead, and to meet the problem with all the resources of human ingenuity at our disposal."
Mr. McCain could emphasize on protecting environment even in Japan.
