JAKARTA: An old train shipped from Japan to Indonesia accidentally connected two men, thanks to a smartphone lost on the train.
Shota Noda, 21, a university student from Zama, Kanagawa Prefecture, lost his smartphone on a train while it was in operation in Japan. The phone was found about 5,800 kilometres away in Jakarta and returned to Noda this summer, seven months after he lost it. Since then, Noda has promoted his friendship with Syahri Rochmat, 24, the Indonesian railroad employee who found the phone.
