Japan's nationalism and ethnocentricity will not allow us to import vast amounts of foreigners as laborers, hence our large strides in robotics development.

This avoids many problems, and introduces some new ones of its own. There is no quick, easy fix for this long-standing issue.

RE: Japan’s nationalism and ethnocentricity

How about a slow change in cultural attitude through education ? We live in a global economy now and I am sure that most Japanese are aware of this demographic problem.

One other possibility would be to ENCOURAGE more children via incentives.
