If you've got some dosh, wanna protect it as much as possible. Want to live in peace in a highly developed peaceful nation? Want to gain language skills to enhance ones future job opportunities? It's a no-brainer. Or consider moving to Canada or the USA. They've got their good points but no wonder Japan is a very attractive destination.
Japan has its appeal, being highly developed, generally peaceful, and safe for most—though less so for women.
But let's be realistic: calling Japan "highly developed" only really applies to its infrastructure and education. It ranks among the lowest in terms of gender equality and female empowerment, has one of the worst work-life balance cultures, low wages, limited press freedom, and operates under a pseudo-democracy.
