Original: VOX POPULI: Yasuo Fukuda’s post-retirement China diplomacy a valuable lesson

The Asahi Shimbun's Vox Populi, Vox Dei column argues that former Japanese prime minister Yasuo Fukuda's continued engagement with China after leaving office offers a valuable lesson in diplomacy. Writing in Japanese, the piece frames his quiet, personal outreach to Beijing as a model worth remembering amid today's strained relations between Tokyo and Beijing.
