I think that there is a strong barrier of xenophobia over residents in Japan. Language barrier is the strongest factor to deter accepting foreigners. The Japanese government should legislate English to be a public language so that more Japanese will be proficient in English. Population aging is already serious issue, so the government should take strong initiative to develop Japanese society ASAP. Best regards, 5971mak
Teacher SaraRoseNY Thank you for corrections that are helpful to me. When I was a university student, I took part in the international friendship programs by Ministry of Foreign affairs for five years. During the duration, the project aimed to encourage Japanese young students to focus on neighbor countries in Asia. Visiting Asian countries, participants stayed at local community centers with public health nurses, local university students, and village young leaders so that we spread healthy behaviors like drinking boiled water, washing hands clean before eating, and stopping defecation in the river to local people. Before I went to those countries, I imagined people living in developing nations were sad and miserable because TV news channels always broadcasted such crying. Actuarially, they were in dire poverty and struggling for money but they are not unhappy. Although they had to make a lot of effort to save money, locals always collaborated each other to have daily life sharing items and helping daily things with neighbors. That is the reason why the picture on this topic showed children smiling. I learned a lot through the programs including with wisdom "wealth is essential but people who are in need can make themselves happy while helping mutually." Mutual understanding, mutual corporation, and concession to others can become important part for one's happiness. I recalled my experiences and learned essences during the programs by watching children's smile on the picture. Best regards, 5971mak

Teacher SaraRoseNY Thank you for corrections that are useful to me. In Japan, unlike in the US, taking a political stance often is risky because we may suffer from discrimination. It is because that such behaviors may damage a spirit of group harmony at home and workplaces. Many of adults say that geopolitical matters are difficult to judge while hiding their true hearts. We are afraid of having different opinion that getting kicked out from families, friends, and colleagues. While serching true hearts of surrounding people, we show our thoughts little by little to maintain the atmosphere of group unity. Having self-esteem and individualism is still restricted by our traditional social norm. I hope that economic globalization will expand diversity and tolerance through accepting more economic migrants who have different backgrounds in Japan. Best regards, 5971mak

Teacher SaraRoseNY Thank you for corrections that are helpful to me. Although addressing concerns the chief priest has is understandable, I don't think that residents in Kyoto expect traditional religious ceremony. Since I was born in Kyoto, circumstance of Kyoto has changed drastically from one of the domestic popular cities to a world-class travel destination now. Not only travellers but also huge number of residents look forward to having a spectacle entertainment experience at the Gion Festival. The three consequtive nights before the parade day are called Yoiyama, so-called eve of the parade of the festival. Many stalls are set up along streets at night, and the floats are decorated with lanterns and traditional solemn music while parking along these streets, creating a splended fantasy ambience. Young people such as high school, university students, and young adults wear yukata robes and enjoy this colorful and gorgeous atmosphere. It resembles to the atmosphere of a night parade at Disneyland park plus classical music. Everyone now enjoys the Gion Festival as an entertainment show, except for the elderly who respect tradition. During the period of the festival, it is said that around 1.5 million people visit Kyoto to enjoy the event. For the reference, the number of Kyoto city population is 1.5 million. Now I live outside Kyoto and usually avoid visiting Kyoto during the festival because of heavy traffic congestion and large crowds. It is really mess. Best regards, 5971mak

Teacher SaraRoseNY Thank you for corrections that are useful to me. Many Japanese, especially female workers are also nervous not to make their shoes smudged with muddy water during the rainy season. Since they think that elegant outfit is a part of their good impression to others, the droplets of muddy water damage their decent atmosphere. Therefore, a waterproof spray becomes popular not to get their beatuful shoes dirty. Best regards, 5971mak
