Ouyang Jing, a Taiwanese celebrity who lived in Tokyo for four years, shared insights on priority seating in Japan, emphasizing the importance of 'reading the atmosphere.' She explained that in Japan, offering a seat is based on subtle cues such as a pregnancy badge on a woman's bag or a senior citizen deliberately not approaching priority seats. Priority seating is available for anyone if there are empty seats, but seniors who prefer not to be offered a seat may avoid those areas. Additionally, using mobile phones near priority seating is prohibited due to the risk of affecting individuals with pacemakers. Overall, the act of offering a seat in Japan is complex and influenced by cultural norms and individual preferences.

The Ministry of the Environment announced intentions to amend regulations to strengthen the control of SRF emissions. The move comes in response to loose regulations in the past that allowed for potential mixing of SRF sources with chlorine-containing plastics like PVC, leading to dioxin emissions during incineration. The revised measures will classify SRF based on chlorine content, prescribe high-spec air pollution control equipment, and enhance control of emissions derived from resource recovery fuels. The amendments aim to set standards similar to those for large waste incineration plants, specifying fuel use requirements, and emissions standards for pollutants like dioxins, particulates, sulfur oxides, and nitrogen oxides.
