Japan announces this year's Order of Culture recipients

Original: 文化勲章

The Japanese government has named this year's recipients of the Order of Culture, one of the country's highest honours. Composer Tsukasa Tokura, architect Toyo Ito, Nobel chemistry laureate Kenichiro Itami and saxophonist Sadao Watanabe are among those recognised, with eight people receiving the medal. Honorees spoke of gratitude to collaborators and hopes for younger generations, and the annual autumn awards list is drawing wide attention.

Why now: The annual announcement of Japan's Order of Culture honours names prominent figures, prompting congratulatory coverage and interviews.
