In fairness though last time I called the US call center (after a 70 minute hold) I got someone in the Philippines. That's perfectly fine however it was just a call center and they still had to call someone in Japan to make any decisions.
Reminds me of ANA's website.

I think you might be stirring a hornet's nest here...It's FT and there are plenty of people with nothing better to do with their spare time than to attack someone they disagree with.
