Operation Combat: How Japan PM Sanae Takaichi dealt with cockroach chaos
Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi recounted a recent episode involving a cockroach in her official residence, which she said made her recall her childhood belief in reincarnation. Despite her efforts to keep the residence clean, the insect appeared near her feet, and she hesitated to kill it, instead hoping it would leave on its own.
When she eventually told her secretaries about the incident, they were shocked and initiated what she referred to as 'Operation Combat' to eradicate the pest. Takaichi's explanation of her behavior was met with disbelief, and she pondered whether her hesitation stemmed from her belief in the cyclical nature of life.
