		A hollow Hokkaido: a historic village is a microcosm for northern woes.
		With a climate and topography closer to that of Topeka than Tokyo, Hokkaido residents are fond of comparing themselves to Americans, blessed with an un-Japanese "frontier spirit" inherited from hardy ancestors who came north in the late 19th century to fish, farm, log and dig coal.
		Hokkaido's special treatment is widely seen as the root of its current predicament, having turned the island of six million from pioneering Daniel Boones into passive welfare queens.

		In February 1991, when I returned to my hometown of Nemuro, in Hokkaido, in order to take over the management of my father's company, entry restrictions on Russian boats were eased under a reciprocal agreement with Russia.
		At the time, those of us in Nemuro did not imagine that Nemuro would be in the front line of the snowballing development of interpersonal and economic exchange with Russia.
		The peculiarities of Nemuro lie not only in the culinary delights of the northern sea, but also in its position as the basic focus of issues relating to Russia and the Northern Territories.

		Another significant side to Nemuro is the fact that it is home to many first-, second- and third-generation former inhabitants of Kunashiri, Etorofu, Shikotan and Habomai, which are part of Japanese territory, and the grassroots of the movement demanding the return of the Northern Territories are located here.
		One cannot help but feel that Nemuro truly is a scaled-down version of the current state of play between Japan and Russia, being the scene of cooperation and conflict, economic exchange and political dialogue, all of which has been built on the platform of foreign relations at the private sector level.
		As a citizen of Nemuro, I gave my opinion on the issue; I likened the many national benefits that both countries will enjoy to a reservoir, with the adverse historical legacy of the territorial issue acting as a massive bung blocking up the outlets used for discharging water.
