"In Japan, the biggest problem is people’s lack of concern about international matters. For ordinary Japanese people, the world is made up of our country and the United States. If you want to report, there’s not much audience to listen to it. And in Japan, there are very, very few independent journalists; almost all of the journalists belong to big media."Natsuki Ikezawa (jury member 2003 & 2004)
