Reminding Flight-163 incident of eighties, gracefully time everybody is safe, thanks to skilled resources and modern safety.

Good on further strengthening already established stereotype.

At first looking at the photo, I thought some hijab-clad women are working in city office.

There are good numbers of islamic organizations doing charity activities and raising funds based on mosques. Most alarmingly, almost all of the mosques of Japan are managed by Pakistani migrant community increasing the likelihood of funding of extremest sympathizer. Better security agencies beef up scrutinizing fund transfer of each of such organizations.

Some of the key factors can't be replaced with technology or robots no matter how advanced those are such as elderly care, child care, maintaining infrastructures and above all keeping up inflow of tax. Ready to employ type of immigration is impractical in case of Japan due to language barrier. The best option would be welcoming more and more eager international students with scholarships and language, cultural support that will eventually make them adaptable to Japan during their student life.

japanese people are not good at ice breaking. Mostly it's the gaijins who take the initiative and then the Japanese counterpart starts conversation for the sake of formality. They prefer the sitting arrangement because it's less challenging which ends up as preplanned conversation.

In the beginning of sentence "Actually..." and at the end of sentence "you know".

It may sound racist but the undeniable reality is that only dark skinned foreigners are and will be center of suspicion as a rule of thumb. So far I have talked with foreigners living in Japan, never found a white one having experience of being stopped, because usually westerners are not known for visa overstaying.

Can you remember the widely publicized campaign of "Japan. Thank you" in 2012? Interestingly, that was not intended for the foreigners within Japan only, rather for international community in the world.

Such a mean and disgusting pervy, even other pedophiles would hate such heinous act.

Pakistan is declining quickly, it's economy is lagging behind even Bangladesh. It has one of the highest percentage of illiteracy in the world that gives prime hotbed for harboring religious extremists.

It's so true. The Lawson store in my locality closed down though it looked bustling apparently at night. I already witnessed schools being closed in a Tokyo ward and used as community center just for shortage of kids (according to the staffs working there). As consumer base are shrinking so the revenue graph falling, simple and natural effect. To overcome this either you have to embrace skilled immigration or move forward foreign markets. But expecting increased birth rate within Japanese people is quite unrealistic unless something revolutionary change happens in the society.

It's a failed state ala Somalia, which means it is a breeding ground for religious extremists, in this case Islamic.

After googling about the country, found that for last two decades, Bangladesh economy has been growing consistently at 6% rate, having the foreign reserve second after India in south asia which is higher than Pakistan, export revenue, HDI already higher than Pakistan. Social development index such as hunger, Sanitation, school enrollment, life expectancy are higher than India. Only because of poor diplomacy the country is little-known to developed world and still perceived as ultra impoverished but not that much horrible in reality.

Pathetic incident for such a pro-Japan developing country, it's a big blow to the foreigner's confidence on security over there.

New term maybe coined something like "Bond boy", lol.

That’s sad but at least benign. Then there’s “Mr Fukami,”39. “I liked her for her strong character,” he says, recalling feelings for his wife earlier in their relationship. Now he wishes he’d read the danger signals better. The “strong character” is diabolic – she douses him with hot water, or throws furniture at him, when he fails to fold a towel to her satisfaction. (Spa! doesn’t give us her story.)

Mr.Fukami might be in the lockup already for DV if he would do the same treatment to his "strong" wife.

Vandalism of hitchBOT would also happen in Japan as the recent incidents of vending machines are not faded away.

@holyholly Tracking illegal downloading is not a big deal for cyber police. Those p2p sources are publicly open and keep footprints of data transfer on their routes.

If there was no binding of article 9, an offensive action on ISIS would make Japan as a fresh target of the terrorist with the price of long withstanding domestic stability and security.

In a demonstration, one CommU said to another CommU, "Do you know Denmark?"

It replied: "I love Denmark," to which the first said, "I love Denmark, too."

Curious mind wants to know, why on earth someone would pay about 100,000 yen for each to put up with such robotic chitcat and surprisingly the inventor is suggesting to buy three or four to increase the boredom intensity!!

In this era of smart devices, a startup can easily come up with the idea of talking robots where the "Robot aps" of multiple devices (be it phone or pad) which would communicate more intelligently than these dolls smattering of greetings or repeated agreed replies to make it sound little humanoid.

Next time, there will come up services like "Sarariman service for the unemployed ones for a single day".

@Disilusioned, Abe is not visiting India right now, so that news is irrelevant here. There are many Indian investments in Japan specially Indian IT giants already stepped their foot for decades here. A good number of people from other sub-continent countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, Srilanka, Nepal are operating their own business in Japan and somehow contributing to the Japanese economy.

The process of importing cheap foreign laborers for aforementioned sectors has begun already in the name of 5years trainee visa. But the gap of skilled workers in white-collar jobs can't be easily filled because of immense language barrier.

If the photo was intentionally taken at something odd timing to portray bad business ambience this can be a good example.

Muslims require this extra requirement because as far as I know they are scared to be thrown in the hell if non-halal food is consumed. So, to save themselves from hellfire they try to stick to halal food wherever they go. It's not that bad, thus creating a niche business in Japan and other countries also.

@Knox Harrington This video is pretty old and seems uploaded to the net 3 yrs ago. You're just spot on. Here is the youtube link of a J variety program that acknowledges this Saudi show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQZqrummr9U

Too much sexually explicit contents will cause the males ED (Erectile dysfunctionality) as a natural consequence. People with sexual deprivation or starvation are more tend to porn and end up being addicted. Get a real life and enjoy much more than mere fantasy, problem solved.

The crime section of Japanese newspapers introduce us some unimaginably pervert and weird acts that would be extremely unusual back home, of course crimes here are comparatively less violent .

Very unfortunate. Saitama is thriving in negative news recently.

Too revealing or too alluring? Seeing these young attractive crews any straight & healthy dude will definitely turn on in a varying degree but those who are true gentlemen can behave normal.
