Japan - some interesting facts
These practices set a high standard for young people . . . . .
* Japanese children clean their schools every day for a quarter of an
hour with teachers. This led to the emergence of a Japanese generation
who is modest and keen on cleanliness.
* Any Japanese citizen who has a dog must carry special bags to pick
up dog droppings. Hygiene and their eagerness to address cleanliness
is part of Japanese ethics.
* A hygiene worker in Japan is called "health engineer" and can command
salary of USD 5000 to 8000 per month, and a cleaner is subjected to written
and oral tests!!
* Japan does not have any natural resources, and they are exposed to
hundreds of earthquakes a year, but this has not prevented its becoming
the second largest economy in the world.
* In just ten years Hiroshima returned to what it was economically vibrant
before the fall of the atomic bomb.
* Japan prevents the use of mobile phones in trains, restaurants and indoors.
* For first to sixth primary year Japanese students must learn ethics in
dealing with people.
* Even though one of the richest people in the world, the Japanese do
not have servants.The parents are responsible for the house and children.
* There is no examination from the first to the third primary level because
the goal of education is to instill concepts and character building.
* If you go to a buffet restaurant in Japan you will notice people only eat as
much as they need without any waste because food must not be wasted.
* The rate of delayed trains in Japan is about 7 seconds per year!!
The Japanese appreciate the value of time and are very punctual to minutes
and seconds.
* Children in schools brush their teeth (sterile) and clean their teeth after a
meal at school, teaching them to maintain their health from an early age.
* Japanese students take half an hour to finish their meals to ensure proper
digestion because these students are the future of Japan.
The Japanese focus on maintaining their own culture. Therefore . . . ..
* No political leader or a prime minister from an Islamic nation has visited Japan
- not the Ayatollah of Iran, the King of Saudi Arabia or even a Saudi Prince!!
* Japan is a country keeping Islam at bay by putting strict restrictions on Islam
and ALL Muslims.
1) Japan is the only nation that does not give citizenship to Muslims.
2) In Japan permanent residency is not given to Muslims.
3) There is a strong ban on the propagation of Islam in Japan.
4) In the University of Japan, Arabic or any Islamic language is not taught.
5) One cannot import a 'Koran' published in the Arabic language.
6) According to data published by the Japanese government, it has given
temporary residency to only 2 lakhs, Muslims, who must follow the
Japanese Law of the Land. These Muslims should speak Japanese and
carry their religious rituals in their homes.
7) Japan is the only country in the world that has a negligible number of
embassies in Islamic countries.
8) Muslims residing in Japan are the employees of foreign companies.
9) Even today, visas are not granted to Muslim doctors, engineers or
managers sent by foreign companies.
10) In the majority of companies it is stated in their regulations that no
Muslims should apply for a job.
11) The Japanese government is of the opinion that Muslims are fundamentalist,
and even in the era of globalization they are not willing to change their
Muslim laws.
12) Muslims cannot even rent a house in Japan.
13) If anyone comes to know that his neighbor is a Muslim then the whole
neighborhood stays alert.
14) No one can start an Islamic cell or Arabic 'Madrasa' in Japan.
15) There is no Sharia law in Japan.
16) If a Japanese woman marries a Muslim, she is considered an outcast forever.
17) According to Mr. Kumiko Yagi, Professor of Arab/Islamic Studies at Tokyo
University of Foreign Studies, " There is a mind frame in Japan that Islam is a
very narrow minded religion and one should stay away from it."
The Japanese might have lost the war, but they are in charge of their own country.
There are no bombs going off in crowded business centers, "Honor Killings", nor
killing of innocent children or anyone else.

I wonder what our right-wing commentator thinks of Japan banning foreign trade for 200 years in order to shut out Christian influence, as well as the jingoism that came with their re-entry into global society prior to WWII.
Also, whenever I see conservatives using Japan to bash the American education system, I wonder if they realize that Japan has a centralized national education ministry, which they fear here in the US.
Unsurprisingly, none of this is true
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam_in_Japan#Muslim_demographics
AFAIK, Japan does not have a constitutional amendment guaranteeing everyone the right to worship as they please.
Japan also has some of the strictest gun laws on the planet, which undoubtedly contributes to their pleasant society.
Right wingers would choke on the lack of personal freedom and number of laws they would have to follow in Japan. While most of these bullet points seem to be the product of a right wing anti-American fantasy, they are really here simply to bash Muslims. Sad that they have to hype another culture in order to do so.
Good comments, all.
And this:
"There are no bombs going off in crowded business centers, 'Honor Killings', nor killing of innocent children or anyone else."
Conveniently forgets this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarin_gas_attack_on_the_Tokyo_subway
But conservatives have an extreme aversion to facts, as always.
And crazy Bryan Fisher passed this along on his radio show. Not true, except the parts about students cleaning their schools.
Agree with prior comments, and let us not forget that Fukishima nuclear plant disaster with that last huge earthquake. We are now seeing higher levels of radiation in the ocean, fish & other other Pacific ocean plants since that disaster.
So let's wax lyrical about Hiroshima, while also ignoring all the problems experienced by Hiroshima survivors & their kids.
Most of this is baloney anyway. Just one minor example (ignoring the Muslim bashing):
Even though one of the richest people in the world, the Japanese do not have servants.
-- complete crap & not true.
However, I suppose this is an *indicator* that the "Greatest Generation" is, indeed, dying off. I can well remember growing up in the 1950s, and a LOT of WWII vets would not have felt so warm & fuzzy about the Japanese.
Weird way to bash Muslims. Give this rightwing think tank a teensy bit of credit for coming up with something a tad more original, even though it's completely stupid & nonsensical & mostly not true (but what else is new).
P.S. I'd really LOVE to see most of these rightwingers actually *endorse* their spawn cleaning their schools' toilets, fwiw. Highly doubtful, but if these rightwingers think this is something to be emulated, then have their spawn clean the bathrooms at home every week. Do you think that happens???
'Japan prevents the use of mobile phones in trains, restaurants and indoors.'
Highly doubtful. If I remember my anime (and modern culture research) correctly, the Japanese use their phones constantly. They text all the time, and it is considered polite to do so.
There are actually mosques in many large cities in Japan, and most Japanese have no problem with the Muslims.
Strange that they think that the highly government-controlled economy is so great. After all, isn't anything short of privatising the fire brigades, police stations, and Post Offices socialism?
Just a few whoppers here for your enjoyment.
"Japanese children clean their schools every day for a quarter of an hour with teachers. This led to the emergence of a Japanese generation who is modest and keen on cleanliness."
The Japanese have always been obsessed with cleanliness. You're confusing the cause with the result.
"Any Japanese citizen who has a dog must carry special bags to pick
up dog droppings. Hygiene and their eagerness to address cleanliness
is part of Japanese ethics. "
Sounds like just the sort of big government nanny-state laws tea partiers are so fond of.
"A hygiene worker in Japan is called "health engineer" and can command salary of USD 5000 to 8000 per month, and a cleaner is subjected to written and oral tests!!"
A civil servant making $60-96,000 per year? Sounds exactly like the GOP platform!
"In just ten years Hiroshima returned to what it was economically vibrant before the fall of the atomic bomb."
Well, I can't imagine WE had anything to do with that.
"Japan prevents the use of mobile phones in trains, restaurants and indoors."
Bullshit.
IMPEACH OBAMA NOW!!
IMPEACH THE LIAR-IN-CHIEF!
THE DESTROYER OF AMERICA!
