Some kindergartens in Japan do not have licenses and use an English teacher set up as a money making machine. I applied for a job at one in Kyoto and after I signed up, I was shocked to see the Japanese female boss screaming at the small children. I resigned on the same day that I started. Horrible place. Canadian English teachers are notorious for abusing students as is the case in Thailand.

Just crossed JAL of my airline list.

surely all airlines should have mandatory breath blood level checks for the pilots and crew before the flight departs.

If you are a non JP married to a JP, have kids and money and are about to seperate, grab your children and some money and get the hell out of their fast or you’ll loose the shirt of your back!

The Hague Convention treaty will not change a set in concrete Japanese judges mind.

It’s a terrible side affect of a strong but beautiful culture.

We have friends whose brother is suffering the same problem.

He has always lived with his parents and both recently passed away. His condition is getting worse with no family support in Japan.

Our friends with children who migrated to Australia are now thinking to return to live in Osaka to support the brother.

The disease is really caused by a combination of having to conform and endure the pressures, requirements and many aspects of a strong Japanese culture. I believe Japanese culture is disappearing so these symptoms will no doubt begin to decrease. It’s all so sad but true.

Posted in: Bitcoin not yet proven as credible currency: Aso See in context

Yep, BITCOIN is as dodgey as the people in the know say. I know many that have fallen for BITCOIN and have lost small fortunes. Definitely stay away from it.

Posted in: In U.N. speech, Trump threatens to 'totally destroy' North Korea See in context

The Rocket Man and Trump are great at threatning each other like two little kids while Japan debates shooting down the next rocket, standard, chemical or Nuclear!

We need some promises and some real action before it's to late.

Posted in: China says Japan shouldn't slap N Korea with sanctions See in context

I think the world should slap sanctions on China including not visiting the country. It may wake them up to what North Korea is doing.

Poor girl. Hope she is safe and able to call safely without hindrance. Nothing worse than disappearing in a foreign land without income and support. Let's pray that the later doesn't apply.
