Such a weird situation. It looks like „come work for us for cheap but don’t be a nuisance don’t bring your culture and f off in a few years“. Economically dependent but socially with a posture like they’re Edo japan

Where are all the Sanseito voters? Surely they would be jumping at the opportunity of getting these jobs instead of being NEETs and social parasites.

Specifically, the SSW visa quotas for the most part. The ‘fuck off after 5 years’ visa that doesn’t allow you to have long term residence. They just hate the idea of people coming along and working long term and staying, having a family.

I don’t understand the comments here about permanent residence? Specifically about not being able to attract any if there was no path to it. Middle eastern countries like the UAE have significant expat populations where you and your family will be expected to leave at some point even if you stayed there for decades and your children were born there.
You sign a contract that says you leave after a certain amount of years, after earning more money that you would in your home country. Many countries do this, and many foreign workers are okay with this arrangement.
The whole point of having foreign labour is to fight the negative effects of low birthrates by boosting production and servicing the elderly’s social welfare (what was it? 2-3 young workers to service 1 elderly?). Expats solves this by having young workers, as well as making sure they leave before they become part of the elderly (which would necessitate an endless cycle of more foreign labour). People here keep calling that unfair, but these foreign workers literally know what they’re getting into. A government’s responsibility is and should always be to its citizens.

Here is a revolutionaey concept, Japan:
Stop having a notoriously punishing work culture, and maybe your worker shortage will become less drastic.

As an expat living in Japan right now, I can feel the slow shift towards nationalism. I am not afraid of living here as I have for the last 32 years but I am afraid of what the future Japanese economy will be like if this mentality takes hold of the core of the country.

Didn’t they lower the quota numbers too?

This sub should renamed to r/japannegativenews
Judging from this sub, one would think Japan is some 3rd world country that’s gonna be wiped from the map in a year or two, lots of circlejerking that wants Japan to just crash and die

Anyone know any one that needs a satellite communications guy? Beauty of my field English is required, so I figure I can get in and learn Japanese as I go.

Maybe this whole anti-immigrant thing is sort of the last gasp of old-school Japan before society becomes completely unsustainable without open immigration?
Well, we can dream, anyway.

Just let it burn, please. Introduce even more restrictions, make yen even more cheaper, so that even Asian countries that traditionally were considered poor like Vietnam or Philippines don’t see any appeal in working in Japan (for just money).
Let Japan get some reality check.

Never listen to this bullshit. It’s an American technique to outsource for cheap labor while raising prices for goods. I bet you can figure out who pays for this rhetoric.

What kinda workers are they looking for ? Need any chefs from Sweden ? 😂

OK if you actually want real talent and to prevent brain drain you homies gotta be way more welcoming and root out discrimination. Like the first thing anyone talented gets hit with off the plane is 90% rejection rate for housing due to color of their skin and name. Dogshit wages and a crap currency doesn’t help.

Japan: Can I have cake *and* eat it, please?
