Japan. Rising Sun Flag of the Asahi Shimbun Company.
Asahi Shimbun is and was one of the main newspapers in Japan. In the early 1930s, he suffered several attacks by ultranationalist forces due to his liberal position. However, at the end of the decade he supported Prime Minister Fumimaro Konoe based on anti-capitalist ideas and in favor of the planned economy. In line with the government, in 1937 Asahi sponsored the Kamikaze flight which was the first Japanese-made aircraft to make a direct flight to Europe.
