That’s a clever title

If they were more open to foreigners they could buffer their population decline easily with immigrants. A lot of people would love to live in Japan

 

[SoulController]

Japan is stingy on immigration, so they can only complain so much

here? young people dont want to pay off child-related debt to go with the upcoming house/car payments. i dont know a single young person that wouldn't be crushed by the cost

I don't think Japanese can deal with immigrants. Too homogenous. It works in the West due to our ideals, but not in Eastern countries like Japan.

Also - immigration introduces its own set of problems.

They can they just dont want to. If you move there and choose to adopt the culture you should be welcomed but we know that isn't the case

Maybe coli brehs who travel can expound on this,

but from what I hear, Japan is hands down probably one of the best cities ever in regards to culture and safety. Immigrants would fuk all that up, so it's good they are strict and they should stay strict.

They just need to fix working hours and get people to fuk.

Japan has actually begun relaxing its immigration and visa regulations in recent years

Some people think this is a good thing for some reason.

Technologically and even having a good quality of life...assuming you have money...is better than say comparatively vs the 90s. Culturally it's not better and I find myself being nostalgic. Culture wars, social media, all this nonsense is making the world worse.

Japan, Korea, China, US, Canada, all the same boat. Without immigrants, economies will collapse in less than 50 years

Alot of talk about birth rates lately
