Japan's Emperor Naruhito has made his first remarks in front of the public since ascending the throne earlier this week.

The Imperial Household Agency said more than 140,000 people visited the Imperial Palace on Saturday to celebrate the Imperial succession. Emperor Naruhito, Empress Masako, and other members of the Imperial family appeared on the palace balcony six times during the day to greet the public.

The Emperor said, "I am standing here today after the ceremonies marking my accession to the Throne. I am delighted and deeply grateful that you have come to celebrate. I wish for your health and happiness. And I sincerely hope that our country will develop further while working together with other countries to pursue global peace."

A visitor in her teens said she was happy she got to witness the historic moment the Emperor and Empress appeared on the balcony.

A man visiting from Okinawa said he hopes the Reiwa Era will be peaceful and safe, just as the Emperor wished for in his speech.

Citizens and tourists can also sign their names in special congratulation books at Imperial Household Agency offices in various cities over the weekend.

A small rocket developed by a Japanese startup company was successfully launched on Saturday morning.

Interstellar Technologies, based in Japan's northernmost prefecture of Hokkaido, developed and produced the 10-meter-long rocket with a diameter of 50 centimeters.

The company said the rocket successfully rose to an altitude of 100 kilometers. It is the first private firm in Japan to launch a rocket into space.

The development of rocketry in Japan has been led by JAXA, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, which is a government organization.

A passenger plane carrying more than 140 people has slid off a runway into a river in the southern US state of Florida. Twenty-one people were injured.

The Boeing 737 aircraft skidded into the St. Johns River on Friday night while landing at a naval air station in the city of Jacksonville. The plane was operated by US charter airline Miami Air International.

The US Navy says there were 143 people onboard.

The Navy says the plane arrived from a US military base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Media reports say the passengers included service personnel and their families.

CNN quoted one passenger as saying there was a thunderstorm at the time of the accident.

The Boeing 737 involved in the incident is different from the 737 MAX 8, which has been grounded following a series of fatal accidents.

The US National Transportation Safety Board has sent investigators to examine the cause of the accident.


Key words : south labor union

A South Korean labor union has vowed to erect a statue in a park in the southern city of Busan representing Koreans it claims were forced to work in Japan during World War Two.

Members of the group rallied on Friday at the park, which is about 100 meters away from the Japanese Consulate General. Participants shouted slogans, demanding an apology from Japan.

Senior members of the union say they eventually want to install the statue in front of the consulate general.

In April, city officials removed the statue from a sidewalk near the Japanese facility, saying its placement was illegal. However, members of the union put it back again.

The Japanese government says placing the statue in the park or in front of the consulate would be problematic in light of an international convention on consular relations.
