May 8, Friday

We finally arrived safely in Tokyo. This trip almost ended itself in Tokyo airport because two leaders were asked to stay inside the plane until one passenger having fever completed a blood test. We would have been escorted to a local hospital and stay there for a few days. Since I did not have any contingency plan for this accident, it could be a disaster to this trip. Luckily we made it to Taipei.
