SHANGHAI/HONG KONG -- The killing of a 10-year-old Japanese boy in the southeastern Chinese city of Shenzhen this week has sent Japanese communities in the country scrambling for additional security.
On Friday morning, an emergency meeting was convened in Shanghai between the Consulate-General of Japan in Shanghai, the Shanghai Japanese Commerce and Industry Club and Japanese schools in the city. "There is a considerable amount of anxiety spreading among Japanese people," Masaru Okada, the consul general, told reporters after the gathering. He said the Japanese government will provide financial and human resources to bolster safety measures.
