Europe's debt woes are of global concern - not least in Japan. It already holds 20% of the total bonds issued by the European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF). But although Japan itself is deep in debt, the country is offering further support to stabilize the European markets.
We accompany finance journalist Nobu Sunaga through Frankfurt. He observes how the "Occupy Wall Street" protest movement is now finding an echo in Europe.
If Japan was bailing out Korea, there would be million-man marches.
Something as simple as too many Koreans appearing on Japanese TV is enough to get the seniors out of their chairs.

"in Japan we don't think this kind of protests will change anything"
LOL, in Japan on their national day they work without pay rather than get a day off like the rest of the world!
Sunaga is probably amazed that people are not working as robots for the good of country no matter what happens! That's what is really amazing for a Japaneze
