Saga of Tokyo

“Japan may be the only one country in this world that had to suffer a lot of miseries. It is an earthquake prone area and in the past centuries it had to face a lot of earthquakes. Tsunamis and volcanoes are almost a regular thing to Japanese. Apart from all these natural calamities, the bombing during Second World War destroyed many parts of the country. Fighting against such adverse situations Japan has reached in the top positions on the list of developed countries. They have proved that nothing can prevent us if we work hard with a strong will”. We are in an unofficial meeting. My Boss has just returned from a short trip to Tokyo. He was narrating his experience.

Before going into the subject deeply, he congratulated Mary, his secretary for making fantastic plan for his trip. “She did a thorough study of the airfares offered by various companies, compared with the facilities offered by them and got me the best fares”. He told us.

“Now, Tokyo has become one of the main destinations for the business world, especially when the automotive and electronic sectors are being ruled by Japanese Giants.” Gradually he came to the details of his tour. He went there to make some tie ups with some Japanese Companies to improve our business. He was quite successful in his endeavor and that reflected on his mood too. We were also happy as we all may get chance to visit Tokyo in future.

“As there are many cheap flights to Tokyo, it will not cost us more. Frequent visits will certainly help to strengthen the relations too.” He told us. After detailing about the terms and conditions of the agreement he had signed with the Japanese companies he turned to his personal experience.

“Apart from a business center it is a hot tourism destination too. With many parks, museums and Islands it attracts many people from all over the world. That could be the reason for all major airlines to operate flights to Tokyo.” According to him, it is the most cleanly city despite the fact that it is thickly populated. They have showed their might and will power to the world by rebuilding the city and the nation after facing so many catastrophes.

“Banking sector too is thriving now along with IT and other servicing sectors.” He pointed out that there is myth about Japan that only manufacturing sector is thriving there. “They are providing all supports to the business community including good infrastructure. They have a work culture and strictly follow some ethics. Cheap tickets to Tokyo are easily available and you all should visit there once to learn the work culture. It certainly will help us to go further.” He concluded his words with a smile. Though we understood that he was mentioning some of us who are a bit lazy at work, we took it positively. And we were happy to know that in the near future we also will get chances to visit Tokyo.
