@zach.bashir: Its disspoainting to hear how many right wing social media posts have been focused on portraying mosques as no go zones here in Japan. The police came to our mosque last week. A room full of foreigners being walked through the rules of the country they’d moved to. That’s the version of foreign communities putting the work in to integrate that nobody posts about. A step more than what the average foreigner gets when they move to Japan. Mosques are more than just a place to pray, they are community hubs. The practical bit, if you’re coming here: 🕌 Most prayer spaces in Hokkaido are unmarked rooms in ordinary buildings, not domes 🕌 Sapporo Masjid in Chuo-ku is the main one and the easiest to find 🚇 Bigger stations and shopping centres usually have a quiet room you can use — Salaam, if you’re new here, I’m Zach. British Muslim, nine years in Japan, married into a Japanese family and raising two little Muslim girls up in Hokkaido. My wife and I have spent four years travelling Hokkaido’s back roads, half of it on our motorcycles, and it’s the most beautiful place I’ve ever lived. I also sit down with Muslims across Japan to hear the real stories behind the headlines. Our mission is to make Hokkaido the most friendly place for muslims! #muslimsinjapan #lifeinjapan #lifeinhokkaido #muslimdijepang #モスク

Totally a good strategy. Police should do regular community outreach engagements like this n have lunch or coffee too to get to know everyone.

Takaichi is a big fan of Trump. They even set off fireworks for 4th of July. Does that answer your question?
