Hello. I typed these characters using Japanese encoding, so if they are garbled, look at the picture in the article below: (what I am asking are the characters surrounded by yellow)

http://today.reuters.com/news/newsArticle.aspx?type=worldNew...

This is on a banner protesting Japan allowing exploratory drilling in contested waters. Also, if you know what else that says in red (3 characters) toward the bottom, I would be interested to know!

Thanks!
