Can anything good come of Japan’s disaster? Martin Wolf dismisses fears that rebuilding will financially strap the government of Japan. In fact, the rebuilding effort may provide the focus to jumpstart a country that’s been floundering for decades. “It is in adversity that a country shows its mettle. The Japanese will surely do just that, on this occasion. It is for the leaders to match the mettle of the people. If they are able to do so, out of a great disaster may yet come a rebirth.”
