Japan is living up to its reputation as a safe country with the World Exposition, where only four of the 12 million visitors have been pick-pocketed, the event’s chief said on Thursday.

Even some of those may have simply misplaced their belongings while visiting the international showcase of technology in central Aichi province, Expo Secretary General Toshio Nakamura said.

Assuming all were real thefts and there were no unreported cases, it means that 0,00003 percent of Expo visitors in four months have been pick-pocketed. “The security level at the Expo is the same as at an international airport,” Nakamura told a news conference in Tokyo.

Depende siguro sa kung aling international airport. Siguro yung Narita, Kansai at ibang Japanese airports ay safe. Pero maraming international airports (nasa US o Europe pa yan, ha) na nakakabit na sa yo ang maleta mo, mawawala pa! (okay, that’s an exaggeration - pero you get the point. maraming nawawalan ng pitaka o bag, even laptops!)
