Contest Name
28th Yomiuri International Cartoon Contest

Theme
"Trouble"

Brief
The world is full of troubling issues, from the great, such as environmental
crises, to the small, such as bothersome neighbors. But sometimes people
take pleasure in others' problems, though we cannot talk about it too loudly.
Surely everybody has found humorous what may be to another person something
very serious.
