マルテイ ツルネン

While using Wikipedia to look up random facts in preparation to my midterm tomorrow (it's faster than actually looking at the book!) I reran across one more notable Finn, namely Martti Turunen, now Tsurunen Marutei, a member of the Japanese parliament (Diet).

The English version of his web pages suffers from a dose of Engrish, not just in syntax but content as well.

Hence, a notable distinguishing characteristic of a Finnish-born member of the Japanese Diet is:
"As a native of Finland he is extremely durable to cold weather."
