Kindergarten sorry over comment

A kindergarten in Osaka that has ties to Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s wife, Akie, has apologized over online comments that domestic media described as possible hate speech against Koreans and Chinese people. Kyodo news agency reported on Friday that the kindergarten had apologized after referring to “irresponsible” South Korean and Chinese parents on its home page. Criticism of Korean residents and Chinese people is a common feature of rightwing rhetoric in Japan.
