@harukaawake Help me understand how he didn’t follow the rules. He kept renewing his visa. The rules changed and you are blaming him for that?

🇯🇵 There's a lot of misinformation floating around (both in Japanese and English) about this situation so allow me to explain what happened. A man name Kumar from India moved to Japan 30 years ago and opened a curry shop and was on a Business Manager visa. During his time here he never bothered to switch to a PR visa (which would have made his life much easier) and instead kept renewing his business visa. However, the requirement went up last year to renew the business visa. ⭐️ (Before) 5 million yen or 2 full-time employees ⭐️ (Now) 30 million yen + 1 full-time Japanese employee He didn't meet the current requirement. This change was designed to ensure businesses create real Japanese employment and have genuine economic contribution. Most Japanese people don't want to shut down foreigner run restaurants. However, it is very important to follow the rules and make smart decisions (like switching to a PR visa if you don't have money) to avoid these situations.

@fuji__tobi How is it a lack of action when PR wasn’t needed. He kept renewing his visa. You are blaming him for not anticipating the change of law? Did anyone anticipate it? The point is that the change is impacting much broader than the bad actors it was supposed to stop.

This 100%. Hiding behind their children to escape accountability for their own lack of action is fucked up.

@ninja_padrino I used to work in Otemachi, so it was a straight shot. But it was awful even when you can time shift “after” the rush. At rush hour, it was borderline torture. For commuting, I remain in awe of the “gaman “ of my fellow commuters

@philandruri I’m just thankful I never had to ride it for long, seemed so torturous for those on longer journeys. Gives some context to why suicide rate is so high - learned early on that paying a premium for being very centrally located pays dividends in removing that stress from my life.

I recall Denentoshi Line used to pull into Sangenjaya every morning with steam coated windows and distraught looks on faces of people coming in from Kanagawa, absolute hell😵‍💫

One morning a week I have to take the Odakyu Line from Fujisawa to Noborito and I couldn’t imagine an existence in which I had to do this 5 days a week. I feel terrible for the poor souls who need to do this everyday. What an awful commute. I’m sure there are worse but ugghh

@BDHerzinger Not sure. If we are truly reverting to a system which more resembles the pre-WWI era, then I think there is more room for the middle powers. Not sure what the U.S. is providing is balance. More like a gravitational well, with other larger players doing the same.

@BDHerzinger Ummmmm, while I don’t disagree 100%, given Trump’s relationship with Xi and Putin, I’m feeling a bit of the pot calling the kettle black, my friend. Yes, there are differences in leverage, true. But you really thing Trump is more thoughtful than Carney? Really?
