But on the other hand, it can help to control the immigration better and attract more financially stable people if you raise some payments and so on.
I don’t really get why whole reddit thinks Takaichi is Nazi. She is rather boring bureaucrat who might stay just another year and then she will lost her approval.

inb4 a lot of people using the average US/Europe income metrics to congratulate the government on weeding out „poor people“ so they won’t *take advantage* of welfare benefits (that they would have theoretically paid for by then)

People should wait and see, especially if it’s household or individual income.

What does Japanese need ? Blue collar job or white collar job? Did they think blue collar jobs can earn the most money while working at inaka?

The funniest part, let us remember, is that immigrants comprise ***LESS THAN 2%*** of the population.
So the fact we are even *spending time and effort* on this is just diabolically hilarious.

Saying without saying „don’t cone to Japan we don’t want you here“

wouldn’t that just foster resentment as they’d be seen as taking good paying jobs?

It seems that with the recent rule changes, the Japanese government is sending out two clear messages to foreigners:
One, low-income workers have the right to stay as workers, but would better leave the country after a certain number of years.
Two, high-income white-collar workers who are actively contributing to the failing tax and pension schemes are welcomed to stay long-term.
*However,* there are a few things that apparently didn’t come to their minds during policymaking.
1. Low-income workers are also contributing to the tax and pension schemes. This is akin to saying „you must pay for the Japanese nationals, but you have no right to enjoy the same privileges as them“. In other words, *daylight robbery*.
2. The most affected are those trapped in the middle of nowhere – i.e. people married to Japanese nationals, but are low-income workers. The government seems keen on punishing these Japanese spouses by saying „it’s your fault for marrying low-income foreigners; divorce or we will tear up your families apart“. Which, when we consider the history of „Japanese married to foreigners not being treated as Japanese“ and the insistence of „100% pure-blood Japanese“ of this country, seems pretty on-brand.

It’s baffling that this could result in many high-paying jobs going to bilingual, highly skilled foreigners, while lower paying jobs remain with Japanese workers.
Wouldn’t that create even more resentment toward foreigners in the long run? Most countries try to prevent locals from feeling disadvantaged, but Japan seems to be creating a system where their citizens get the shorter end of the stick.

Is our PR even safe if we already have it or are they going to start some bullshit with existing holders as well? I also have a mortgage already.

Racism lol. I studied Japanese in school with a Japanese woman teaching me and she never prepared me for how bigoted Japanese people can be towards outsiders, even when you’re living in sync with their culture. The first question a lot of them ask you is „when are you going back?“

So many same posts on this PR regulation.
Perhaps the set of income is too high. I agree.
