The Korea Times’ Kim Yoo-chul also joins Miller to comment on Samsung’s new Galaxy Note 4 and what the company hopes to achieve with its Tizen operating system. Staying with Japan, Miller recounts a number of political overtures made by Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to China and South Korea, as well as what he hopes to achieve at the United Nations. Asia News Weekly then continues, taking a look at the political landscape across the region.
