Memorial service for former Japan PM Nakasone

A Japanese flag is flown at a campus of the Tokyo Institute of Technology in Tokyo on Oct. 17, 2020, as a memorial service funded by the state and the ruling Liberal Democratic Party is held for former Prime Minister Yasuhiro Nakasone. The education ministry earlier in the month asked national universities and other official institutions to fly flags at half-mast and observe a moment of silence during the memorial service to mourn for the former prime minister, who died in November 2019 at 101, a request that has left some academics questioning its appropriateness.
