do you think comic relief should change the target of raising the money to help japan?
don't mean to offend anyone here, but let's face it, it always seems to go to 3rd world countries and we don't see what that money got those countries, they make promises that it went to get malaria nets or whatever (obviously cheryl cole forgot hers :P) but we don't see the outcome on TV, if you are skeptical like me, seeing is believing and i want to see it done. but a year on, there is still suffering still sob stories. but this whole thing in Japan seems devastating, and they need the funding, because it has literally made the country a wreck. it's just a one of change of target. to help aid work over there, help build new homes. they could do with the money right now, and we will be able to see the outcome. and just so the message gets across I DO NOT MEAN TO OFFEND ANYONE WHEN I SAY THIS.

Good idea. But, to do so would be depleting much needed aid from elsewhere. Japan has the third largest economy in the world and give it time, the nation will emerge stronger. Aid going there now will assist in the weeks and months after and then the nation will be able to stand on its own two feet.

I would be happy if Comic Relief give a percentage of the money raised to help the people in Japan
3 :
I agree with you.

Is it wise to study international business in Japan?
Is it wise to study international business in Japan?
I'm a Japan fanatic and if I major in business it would be international in Japan. But people are always suggesting Chinese. I'm Chinese but I only speak Cantonese and I can't stand the sound of mandarin, so I probably really really hate to learn it. Also, I can't read or write in Chinese. I'm very interested in learning Japanese. I know studying in China is better because it is such a mast trading partner to the U.S. I find Japan's goods way more interesting. I'm afraid that I'll make way more money if pick China..

First if you have native fluency in Cantonese and English you have a head start already. Japanese business pay very well for those who can speak English and Japanese. So really to be successful there really depends on your ability to speak Japanese. I would recommend perhaps studying a year or transferring to a university in Japan. Perhaps the best program for you is Sophia University in Tokyo. They have an English set of courses and degrees that they offer and I believe international business is one of them. Plus they are really famous for their international programs, have lot of foreign students and professors, and is one of the top universities in Japan. You might want to also to look at Oberlin as well. But, I recommend Sophia. Its a pretty easy university to transfer to if you have completed two years at an American university from my understanding. I spent about a year there, but was a research associate and think this might be the best place fo you if you are really serious about going this route. Hope this helps

you don't thats the problem allot of folks are having. Most of the time it goes into someones pocket and they buy a yacht with your coins

U never know unless u are the actully taking there ur self

how do you know that the money you give to cashier at the bank actually goes to the right account?

Well, the real question is how do you know that the money you give to a company like NETWORK FOR GOOD, or the American Red Cross actually goes to the Japan Relief? Yahoo does not collect the donations, their links take you to charities which receive referrals from many other companies besides Yahoo. Usually, organizations like that have to disclose their financial activities. I can't vouch for them personally, but I doubt they are buying yachts and champagne with donations.

When you donate, you are not giving money to Yahoo!, you are actually donating through the "Network for Good" (http://www1.networkforgood.org/about-us), to a specific organization or charity that you select via a link. The main Yahoo! article on how to donate to relief is: http://news.yahoo.com/s/yblog_newsroom/20110311/wl_yblog_newsroom/japan-earthquake-and-tsunami-how-to-help. Each charity has its own specific link in the article, each charity also has a 'View Full Report on this organization' link on the donation page, so you can check out their specific financial information.

tap dancing solo song for Japan relief fund?
tap dancing solo song for Japan relief fund?
my friend is organizing a talent show where all the money we make is going to Japan for relief and I'm doing a tap dance. I need a good song that maybe says something about helping people or begging people to help them. I've been tap dancing for ever so it can be a fast or slow song.
