A record of the Asahi Shimbun GLOBE symposium, at which AP Initiative Chairman Yoichi Funabashi spoke, was published in the Asahi Shimbun on December 25, 2017.

The symposium was held to commemorate the 200th edition of the GLOBE, Sunday edition of Asahi Shimbun, on December 2, 2017. Dr. Funabashi delivered a keynote speech, “A Global World and Japan,” and also participated in a panel discussion.

The record includes both the keynote speech and the symposium. Dr. Funabashi stated that, in the hugely standardized world, there is a frontier in which Japan re-discovers and creates its own potential strength together with rest of the world.
