It is the original Japanese CD pressing of the album "Thriller". It contains the original album mix of "Billie Jean". First Japan issue for cd.

DIDP 20022 located under catalog # on the right side of the CD.

There is a note regarding the country of manufacturer on the insert and back cover:
"Record manufactured in Japan by CBS/Sony, Tokyo, Japan". The back cover however has this information along with an additional white bar with the text: "Now Made in the USA".
