Who is Kyushu’s most talented foreigner? We’re getting ready to find out, as we prepare for this year’s Gaikokujin Star Tanjo live contest happening 10/5 at JR Kyushu Hall. Meanwhile, we try delicious peking duck at Mongiwa Hanso-Gion, and sit down with Mr. Srinivasa Popuri at the UN-Habitat Regional Office for Asia in Fukuoka. This month’s Dodesho opinion piece comes from Wonah Lee, who asks for a little more tolerance on public transport in Japan. The snapshots page has links to some great new web content: a Fukuoka Hiking Guide with lots of useful tips and some recommended trails, and an introduction of a board gaming group in Fukuoka. Finally – don’t miss Kyushu’s hottest outdoor music festival Sunset Live, happening September 6~8 on the shores of Keya Beach, Itoshima.
