Having lived in Japan, Shanghai, Hong Kong and now Singapore with many Japanese friends and their familes around me (glad i learnt to speak Japanese when livinig in Japan back in the days), all and I mean Japanese don't want to return to Japan, they all love the relaxed lifestyle and easy way to meet other people even if their English isnt great. Unfortunetly for quite a few who are on 'assignment' as they say which usually lasts 2 or 3 years overseas with their company, they all dread going back to Japan and back into the system. The only ones that don't go back are the ones that quit and find a new job to remain overseas but that means job securty is out the window with their curent employer.

I lied. A friend of mine didnt enjoy Shanghai and wanted to move back to Osaka (even though he was well into the osaka-jin kai group), at the time his wife still had almost 2 years left on her assignment and was happy in Shanghai.

I do find Japanese alot more lively and out of their shell when sober, less wrinkles and less gray hair.

Im curious to know the deaths also, the daily case numbers have been growing every day but i have not seen a report for deaths since the current ‘wave’ has began.
