One weekend during my rotation in Korea, me and two other Infantry Officers took a day trip to Seoul. Apart from the usual sightseeing, I had an objective. I wanted to find a traditional Korean wedding gift for my cousin, whose grandparents were originally from the country. My search took us up a steep street in Itaewon, where the Seoul Tower peaks through the colorful buildings. Here I came across a picturesque pottery store. A helpful employee navigated us through the narrow halls, explaining the art and impressing upon us her decades of knowledge.

Japan's House of Representatives on Friday voted down a no-confidence motion against the Cabinet of Prime Minister Fumio Kishida submitted by the main opposition party, a day after he quelled speculation of an early dissolution of the chamber. The Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan criticized Kishida in the motion for failing to fully explain how to fund key policies, including measures to bolster the nation's defense capabilities and spark Japan's rapidly declining birthrate. After Kishida indicated Thursday he would not react to a no-confidence motion being tabled by calling a snap election during the ongoing Diet session through next Wednesday, the recognition that the Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan hoped to garner was diminished, especially given the motion had little chance of being carried.

Buffett, who died Sept. 1, discovered Key West in the early 1970s and the island's influence is widely credited with inspiring many of his classic tunes including the hit "Margaritaville." Co-created by van den Broek and fellow sand sculpting professionals, the Buffett tribute was commissioned by a longtime friend of the musical icon and stands on a block where he once lived and partied.

RENO, Nev. (AP) — The Nevada secretary of state's office will hold a presidential primary for Republican voters, despite the Nevada GOP saying they'll only honor the results of their party-run caucus to choose the Republican presidential nominee. A second longshot Republican presidential candidate cast their name on the presidential primary ballot Friday, triggering a 2021 state law that requires the Nevada secretary of state's office to hold a presidential primary for the party. Two presidential nominating contests are now scheduled over the span of three days in February, which could result in widespread confusion for Republican voters.

MANILA, Philippines — Several members of the House of Representatives lauded the national government's decision to extend the subscriber identity module (SIM) card registration deadline and called on telecommunication providers and authorities to place measures that would increase inclusivity. In a statement on Tuesday, Camarines Sur 2nd District Rep. Luis Raymund Villafuerte Jr. said that a lot of phone users would have been disenfranchised if the government had not extended the deadline. 'A non-extension of the registration period will have led to the disenfranchisement come Wednesday (April 26) of the legion of legit SIM owners who had failed to sign up, thereby dealing a severe blow to the Marcos administration's efforts to fast-track our country's digital transformation,' Villafuerte said.
