There should be no age limit for the men, just a minimum salary requirement wwww

Accusations are just that, to cancel this guy, hang him out to dry like the press have done is unfair. YouTube cancelling his income stream based on unfounded accusations. If you’re attacked or assaulted report it to the police don’t go crying to some low life reporter!

They’re really rolling out the yellow and blue carpet out for these folks shame about the Sri Lankans and Kurdish…

I’ve check the original article and it translates as “majority of municipalities in Japan, approximately 86%, express the desire for an increased number of foreign slaves to fill positions unwanted by normal people.”

If the benefits can be claimed by any same sex couple then that leaves the door open to benefit fraud and exploitation of a system previously set up for normal married couples. Every Tom Dick and Harry plus the rest are going to claim and it’s coming out of our taxes!

Can a ticket be purchased through 711 terminal or is it free? Asking for a friend.

I just don’t get this virtual thing it’s causing too many otakus to get lathered up.

He is old enough to know better, which could mean there could be more to this story still to come. He hasn’t been prosecuted yet.

He may well have just felt sorry for the tired passenger. In contrast, women have to be careful what they wear so as to not distract other drivers.

It won’t last, however I stopped buying food made in China years ago. 日本製 all the way, baby.

The MyNumber database was leaked to China years ago when a support contract was outsourced to some cheap labor. Explains the strange phone calls I keep getting from China

Windows XP update did it.

While the consequences can be serious does anyone actually foresee points deducted or expulsion from the Premier League? I’d be surprised.

Don’t get excited folks masks aren’t going anywhere!

people may complain about wages and price increases here but compared to the U.K it’s actually not too bad. The price increases there are simply staggering right now even if you earn a good salary. In Japan you can survive on a lower salary somewhat easier than other countries.

I can imagine it now - Sapporo 2030 winter Olympic. “We request that you wear a mask to help prevent the spread..”

Service hasn’t been great it has to be said especially with that outage. As a Rakuten mobile customer I can say that if you don’t mind have one or zero bars on your phone frequently then please do take advantage of their “unlimit” service.

If you wish to see the reality of a Japanese detention centre you only have to see Thomas Ash’s incredible award winning film about Ushiku immigration in Ibaraki. The short trailer on YouTube paints a picture of misery for detainees secretly interviewed who cannot go home but cannot be allowed to enter Japan legally either.

Not too many women will enter a marriage to a man who does not have a stable reasonably well paid job. The economy is littered with agency jobs, contracts, baito, dispatch etc. if the economy and job prospects perk up marriage and children will follow.

I wondered if this person had applied to serve in a shop rather than be part of the corporate side of the business this would have been a different outcome?

I haven’t been stopped in the 6 years I’ve been here, I live in a semi-rural area which probably helps.

As elephant200 said, the fact they don’t get any form of Japanese nationality and the child may be returned to Sri Lanka exhibits all the hallmarks of a dwindling population.

Surely, if we don’t have more new citizens or at least encourage parents to have children, with no one paying into the pension system it will eventually collapse.

I think they need to diversify, cheese and yogurt is an absolute joke here, massive opportunity awaits.
