After comparing www.JAL.com to www.JAL.co.jp prices, i see the Japanese are paying about 50 % more for flying the same route.

It's "business in Japanese" . Encourage Japanese stay home, play in pachinkos, drink, and eat instant noodle for New Year ))) The less know, the less want ))))

Nearly 40% of Japan’s wage-earners now work on a part-time basis, with few benefits or bonuses and little protection against instant dismissal.

It's the truth. May be even more...

Posted in: Is Japanese TV really as bad as its reputation? See in context

Reminds me of Japanese conversation, saying the same things over and over again. I'm a precog at predicting the banal nothings that will come my way.

Exactly!!

Why should Japan change its everyday way of living to accommodate foreigners?

So why not? Be friendly to people is a common sense. Didn't you know that?

My point was that without understanding, the basis of that kind of opinion is weak. Regardless of whether the opinion is positive, or negative, it's basis is weak. If someone cannot understand what is happening (and 'why' it is happening) in a show, they can not properly judge it.

Have you ever heard abt ishindenshin as well as abt non-verbal communication? Language, words are not the main means of communication in Jp. I'm fluent in Japanese but Jp TV (TV shows etc) don't use the words (language) itself that much--screaming, shouting single words, laughing, clapping etc.

Wahou, no mention of Christmas spirit in that article: generosity, peace, forgiveness. I only see the description of materialist & consumerist behaviour. Where is the human description?

Haha. Japanese are kinda different humans )))) Sponge cakes, KFC and love hotels with "significant" ones ))) And yes, soy souce or a bottle of oil as a present . Oh, yes, you don't need to exchange/return these "gifts".

This lady is noooot the # 1 who wrote abt that. There are hundreds of book abt 物を捨てる。Nothing new and very banal.

Pictures of things are not real memories. Real "omoi de" are real things. I've never ever throw away my kids first pictures, first handmade presents for me etc. They have separate plastic cases which are full now with our family sweet memories. A couple of plastic cases don't take so much place ))))

Who is this guy? TV today (Tuesday) reported that he was born in Japan. Okay, so who was he working for ... what was he doing in Africa ... and why is he now in Japan?

Posted in: Failure to internationalize, take risks and value employees by merit have led to years of stagnation in the fields of computers, smartphones and semiconductors. See in context

"Reminds me of an argument I had with my Japanese boss several years ago. Me: But it will turn a profit. Why walk away from this opportunity? Boss: Because it involves risk! Our company does not take risks! We are not that kind of company. If you want to take risks, find another company to work for. Me: But if our company doesn't take risks, how have we lost so much money? Was that on purpose?"

Sorry, but such kind of "conversations" with "a Jp boss" amuse me ))) "Was that on purpose?" You REALLY worked in Jp business? How long? )))))) 1 day? may be the whole week? ))) lol

Posted in: The ugly truth of 'gokon,' Japan’s group blind dates See in context

KabukiloverSep. 29, 2014 - 12:36AM JST

Yuk. Getting girls drunk so they will go home with you is so primitive and so 1950s. There is only one way you will intimately connect with a girl: She has got to like you. Try conversation, guys. I do not mean dirty jokes (well maybe one will placed naughty joke) but intelligent conversation. I think these group blind dates would work a lot better if they met in coffee shops instead of bars.

"Getting girls drunk" ... These "girls" are not babies and not the innocent "puppies" (all abt 30 yo!). They clearly know what gokon is and why they go to gokons. It's a part of Japanese culture. "Coffee shop" )))))))) These women wanna go to the BAR, izakaya, not to a coffee shop ))))) And they know why )))
