Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda said Monday he was sorry when asked why a Taiwanese representative was not called to present flowers at a ceremony a day earlier marking the first anniversary of last year's horrific earthquake and tsunami.
Noda said Taiwan warmly extended assistance in the wake of the calamity and if Japan had hurt Taiwan, he felt truly sorry and promised to reflect on his actions for not being more considerate.
