Hi Blog. Got this from KM a short time ago, regarding Japan’s “Points System” visa<\/a>:<\/p>\n

=================================

\n<\/em><\/strong>Hi Debito! Don’t want to make a mountain out of a mole hill but the illustration at the top of this page interests me:<\/em><\/p>\n

Almost all of the “highly-skilled” people have non-Asian looking noses. The only people that look like they might be from Korea or China are a family and the father is dressed as a factory worker. Like I say, I don’t want to read too much into this illustration but it does seem to be indicative of a tendency to want to exclude people from neighboring countries from the “preferred” group of foreigners.<\/em>
