Icelandic Fin Whale Meat to Japan?
The paper refers to a phone conversation between the Director of Asian Trading Co. Ltd. In Japan, who is the main importer of Icelandic whale meat, and the Japanese Greenpeace representative Wakao Hanaoka on May 7th, 2009. In the conversation, the Director stated that the company will not buy any Icelandic whale meat this year since its consumption in Japan has been decreasing. Wakao Hanaoka and other members of Greenpeace are currently in Iceland to meet with the Icelandic authorities about this matter.
