Japanese royals leave for Thailand

Tokyo (dpa) - Japanese Emperor Akihito and Empress Michiko were seen off at the Tokyo airport Thursday for a six-day trip to Southeast Asia by Crown Prince Naruhito, Crown Princess Masako and Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi, the Imperial Household Agency said.

The royal couple are on their way to pay their first visit to Singapore, where they are to attend a banquet hosted by President SR Nathan on June 9. They then will travel on to Malaysia's Perak state, known for its royal house descended from the rulers of Malacca.

On Sunday, the emperor and empress are to travel to Bangkok for the 60th anniversary celebrations of the ascension of His Majesty the King, the world's longest reigning monarch.

The two last visited Malaysia and Thailand as an imperial couple in 1999, two years after the emperor ascended to the throne.

Before the royal trip, the 71-year-old empress was diagnosed with a cold and cold sores from fatigue last week but decided to press on with the planned visits.
