Japan’s new "disaster-proof" bullet train

(Summary)

Japan has frequently suffered from natural disasters through the years. The latest bullet train which was introduced this month has an innovative feature. The N700S has the inbuilt battery backup and can continue to roll when unforeseen natural disaster occurs in order to take passengers to the nearest safe zone. It means passengers will never get stuck in adverse locations. Moreover the N700S will enhance riding comfort which you have never experienced. 

(My signal)

I predict that we Japanese use our potential about cons more effectively. 

It cannot be said that the timing when the N700S debuted was the best due to COVID-19. However it must have made us excited and proud of Japanese technology.  This technology came from our geographic disadvantage. 
We will be able to use our disadvantages for something not only on tangible things but also intangible things.


For example, Japanese people generally aren't good at speaking English, comparing to other countries'. However it could be advantage because Japanese try to show their kindness by behavior instead of verbal communication. It has possibility to make deeper connection through simple communication. Fortunately many foreigners are interested in Japasene culture. This might be a great tool in communication.

I reckon that we can a turn negative situation into a positive situation.
