I was born in Japan but now am a US citizen. My parents saved some money in my "Yuucho" - postal office account that I created while I still lived in Japan. I left Japan more than 30 years ago.

The money is sitting there with less than 1% interest. I would like to keep it in Japan and use it when I visit. I would like to invest most of the money. What is my choice? Can I open a bank account here in the US but accessible in Japan, and have my mom or sister help me move the money from the postal account in Japan? Does anyone know a bank or banks that is suited for this? My family lives far from Tokyo or any major city, so the bank must be accessible from a remote location.
