Bernd Kaiser wrote in an ironically toned article that Japan's Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi wants to tie the permanent residency right to stricter conditions. According to him, applicants should in the future pay 200,000 yen – a twenty-fold increase in the fee – and prove an income at the level of a normal Japanese household, have their own pension entitlements, demonstrate language skills, and adhere to social rules. Old tax debts could also be a hindrance. Kaiser portrayed the measures as a counter-proposal to a welcoming culture, where immigration costs the local population billions. He wrote that the government is enjoying increasing approval due to a recurring sense of justice and recommended that politicians in Germany take a study trip to Tokyo. At the same time, he criticized that ineffective summits are being lined up here. #Takaichi #Japan #Migration https://t.co/Q5VDYBac27 #Japan #Migration #Einwanderung (translated)
