Tokyo is NOT a global city!

Global is one of the most misused and abused English words (adjectives) in the world!

In the strict sense of the word as defined by good dictionaries, global means:

worldwide; involving or extending throughout the entire world; pertaining to or happening to the whole world; covering, influencing, or relating to the whole world; of, relating to, or involving the entire earth; comprehensive; total;

so pervasive and all-inclusive as to exist in or affect the whole world; universal.

There is NO such a global (worldwide) city in the world. Every and all cities (political/governmental units) are located within a province, region, or a country/nation only. Though all cities can transact international businesses, geographically, any city of any country can never be global nor worldwide.

Thus, there is NO any global city in the world. And it's wrong to call any community or any city a global city.
