You know, sort of like the immigrants who came to America in the Ellis Island days and earlier.
In the 1600’s, they cut all ties to the outside world until the late 1800’s. I think that mindset still remains pretty strong, especially after WWII.
Japan is also an aging and dying nation, now required to use the technology of robot pets to stem widespread loneliness in the elderly, and import increasing numbers of medical personal ad laborers from places like Indonesia and the Philippeans.
It’s hardly a model for our own country.
Of all the world’s civilized nations Japan is...by far...the most serene,the calmest and most cohesive. And South Korea,which has a very similar immigration policy,isn’t far behind.
I will have lived in Japan 39 years this coming September . My wife is Japanese and we have one daughter ( we wanted another kid but her doctor advised against it for several reasons ) who is a high school teacher . Her husband is also a high school teacher . They have a son who’ll be 3 in August and she is expecting her second child in December . Life has been good here. Moving to Japan , I feel , was my fate .
Nope.
Read the article.
You need to elaborate.
“””””Too bad America didn’t go this route but the American experiment was to be a melting pot and E pluribus unum. “””””
Not originally, it was not until the 1840s that America started allowing in large numbers of the less American types.
Just like Peter Lorre.
Interesting article.
My Japanese stepdaughter spent about fourteen years outside of Japan (graduated high school in Dublin, college (two degrees) in US). Lots of pressure from her father to return home.
No foreign workers in her group at NTT which did network, SAN and remote access spin-ups. As her English is good, she got some good assignments working with NTT overseas deployments. Probably the biggest hurdle was males that resented her knowing more than them in network design.

You’re right.
I concur, my semi-local FRiend.
