The worst of times can bring out the best in everyone, even the yakuza. : Japan Subculture Research Center

Item Description
I wrote this piece for the Daily Beast and supplied them with confidential materials to vet the article as well. I’d like to say that I’m not an advocate of the yakuza; I don’t consider them generally a force for social good or social welfare.There will certainly be yakuza who take advantage of the crisis to rake in ill-gotten gains; they aren’t boy scouts. There will also be ordinary people doing the same thing.
