@gemlog Well.... I think you want to Sousa (匝瑳) city in Chiba, not Souka (草加) city (this is Saitama pref., near Chiba.)

I remembered that Chiba pref. has gateways to submarine cable. They are in Minamiboso city, Chikura and Maruyama town.
I don't know what cable is used to send our packets, but I am excited that we are connected each other with long long cable!

rainy morinig but I heard rain will be stop today. It is difficult question to choose a car or bicycle. (6:32 a.m.)

@gemlog sorry I have to fix my toot

I wrote "Currently there is no major media which is no interested" but this means all media has interest, this is not true.

None media has interest, that I want to say so I rewrited.

@gemlog The article is introducd in Japanese at GIGAZNE http://gigazine.net/news/20170531-australian-ship-arrived-japan-1830/

Currently there is no major media (press, TV) which has interest yet.

It is difficult to read Japanese in that old picture... I hope someone will translate modern Japanese.
