      The writing is on the wall, we are not welcome. We will see how it goes, this is their country and they can do with it whatever they want.

      And most of the Japanese public probably doesn’t make enough money to justify paying fees of this price themselves. Rules for thee, not for me.

      But joke’s on them, they’ll still marry foreigners which gives them a guaranteed visa if they want it with far higher purchasing power while their currency goes the way of the Argentine peso.

      Of course. ‘Raise fees for them and not for you and it’ll never come back on you’ will always have an overwhelming majority support (so I’m sort of surprised it’s only 56%).

    4. I’m gonna bet 56% of a lot of demographics would approve of a tax on a demographic that doesn’t include them, yeah.

      Also “amost half of japanese public don’t support raising residence fees for foreigners”

    6. Yeah because they never feel how difficult it is to live as a foreigner that pays the same taxes with Japanese and yet we get treated badly.

    7. What is surprising is that, residence fees for foreigners will impact them more since immigrants do the work they want to do!

    8. So this is the silver bullet Japan needed to improve its birthrate?, scare the foreigners instead of attracting them into improving it.

    9. Even as a foreigner I’m not against raising the prices. It is kinda cheap. But it shouldn’t be a 2000% jump in one go.

      56% is surprising low as well. So low I’m wondering what the sampling bias may be.

      Expected. Why not asking us. They knew the answer in the first place.

    11. Great. Then what after? This will probably be a net zero or net negative income for the gov after it’s said and done. A band-aid over a gashing wound at best

      56% of those who responded to the poll, who are mostly old people who’ve always viewed foreigners as a distant threat and are now emboldened by nonsense articles like this one.

      Well, the majority also thinks if a foreigner marries a Japanese they do not need a visa

      The writing is on the wall. Japan’s 50 year economic high has come to an end. Lots of foreigners will visit as a “last hoorah” until other destinations that aren’t outwardly hostile towards tourists become the popular destination spot. I already see this in the amount of people going to China & SK on trips before they eventually go to Japan.

      Of course they do lol. I’m soo fucking glad Japan was rendered toothless after ww2. There’s a multiverse out there where the US made a deal with Japan after Iwo Jima and continues to be an absolute menace to others while the US turns a blind eye in exchange for some weird pacific allieship like it does with Turkey right now.

    16. I mean honestly idc, the yen is basically monopoly money to me at this point so yeah whatever ill pay their little fee.

    17. I don’t understand. It doesn’t look like they have a foreigner residency problem but more of tourism problem(and in major cities, I mean I didn’t heard Sendai complaining lol) right? Or are people moving to Japan in large hoards and I live under a rock?
