	Bradmans ASIA / PACIFIC 2005 - Osaka
		Osaka remained Japan's economic and manufacturing centre until the second world war, after which firms began to slowly move to Tokyo as the nation rebuilt from the ashes of war, and is now attempting to shake off its image as a manufacturing town by focusing on new technology.
		Osaka is home to the country's largest collection of yakuza criminal gangs and street crime in certain parts of the city is a problem, although foreign visitors are very rarely bothered.
		Osaka transport centres are well-marked in English, and especially around the main centres of Umeda and Shinsaibashi, you should have little trouble getting from A to B. Taxi drivers in general do not speak English, but they can often read it.

	Osaka, Thursday, January 10, 2002 10:46:05 PM
		The hard part, as we discovered, is that the Shinkansen doesn't take you to Osaka station, which is close to the city, it actually takes you to Shin-Osaka station ("new Osaka"), which is a short train ride north.
		I didn't discover this until we had made a reservation with the Hotel Il Monte, which is supposedly not too far out the east gate of Osaka station.
		We walked between the Hankyu rail station and the Hankyu department store (directly out the east gate of the JR station) and as soon as we came upon it I realized what HEP 5 was.
