OLYMPICS ISSUES<\/strong>
\n 1) Wash Post: South Korea\u2019s naturalized athletes in the PyeongChang Olympics; beyond treated as mercenaries?<\/strong><\/p>\n

WaPo: In a bid to upgrade its hockey program in fast-forward, one of the world\u2019s most homogenous countries has created one of the most foreign-heavy Olympic teams of all time. Among 25 players on the South Korean men\u2019s hockey team in PyeongChang, seven were born in other countries, including six in Canada. South Korea has 19 foreign-born athletes competing for it in these Olympics, most of any country, with hockey accounting for the largest share. [\u2026] The imported men\u2019s players are less mercenaries than converts, granted naturalized Korean citizenship even though they have no Korean blood. To get that opportunity, they had to play at least two seasons for Korean clubs in a pan-Asian hockey league. And then meet with national hockey officials. And then national Olympic officials. And then the country\u2019s Ministry of Justice.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Oh, and then they had to take a test and sing the national anthem. \u201cThen, you find out if you pass or not,\u201d said Eric Regan, a defenseman from Ontario, who naturalized in 2016. \u201cI was with Matt Dalton, the goalie, at the time. We went through the process together and we both passed along with, I think, two other biathletes that day \u2014 both Russians. A month later we\u2019re playing in the world championships for Team Korea. It was wild.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

COMMENT<\/strong>: Although breaking down blood-determined national borders in the name of sports participation is a positive development, it is unclear at this point how much of a dent these naturalized athletes will make on the national self-image of what it means \u201cto be a Korean\u201d. If they don\u2019t win (which, sadly, they won\u2019t), then it\u2019s doubtful they will be anything more than an unsuccessful means to an end, an asterisk in the annals of Korean sports.<\/p>\n

But if they are accepted nevertheless as \u201ctrue Koreans\u201d (as opposed to mercenaries; and there is a positive precedent with naturalized citizen Lee Charm\/Bernhard Quandt becoming South Korea\u2019s National Tourism Organization leader in 2009) Debito.org will be among the first to cheer.<\/p>\n

Japan too has made \u201cinstant Japanese\u201d for the purpose of strengthening Japan\u2019s international sports showings, and the fielding of athletes of international roots who didn\u2019t make teams overseas. And there have been some wins on their part. But the outlook is not good: Beyond someone like the (legendary but nasty) baseball player Oh Sadaharu, and some famous Sumo wrestlers (who nowadays aren\u2019t even officially counted as \u201cJapanese\u201d anyway), who remembers them?<\/p>\n

2) Wash Post: \u201cNBC apologizes to Koreans for Olympics coverage praising Japan\u2019s brutal occupation\u201d, rightly so<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s Olympics time again, and, as long-time readers know, I\u2019m a fan of the athleticism but not the nationalism (and inevitable comparisons of strengths and weaknesses along national lines) that is endemic to bordered sports. Too many people compete for glory as representatives of whole societies, not for individual bests, and that particularly takes a toll on Japan\u2019s athletes.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been a relentless critic of Japan\u2019s sports commentary, but now that I\u2019m watching it in the US, fair game. I was quite incandescent with rage at times listening to NBC\u2019s stupid, overgeneralizing, and often borderline racist commentary of the Opening Ceremonies. Fortunately, I was not alone, and Korea protested not only the overgeneralizations, but also the ahistorical comments that were ill-considered. Fortunately, NBC apologized (and told the press that the offending commentator\u2019s \u201cassignment is over\u201d), which is better than I\u2019ve ever seen NHK do for its nasty coverage. Here\u2019s the Washington Post on the issue.<\/p>\n

WaPo: [NBC\u2019s network\u2019s analyst, Joshua Cooper] Ramo\u2019s commentary amounted to bland trivia about Asia \u201cseemingly plucked from hastily written social studies reports\u201d \u2014 such as his observation that white and blue flags stood for North and South Korean unity. Variety compared his commentary to a Wikipedia article.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

But Ramo\u2019s big misstep came when he noticed Prime Minister Shinzo Abe of Japan in the crowd and offered what he knew about the country\u2019s history with Korea. Japan was \u201ca country which occupied Korea from 1910 to 1945,\u201d Ramo said, correctly (though he did not mention that historians say the Japanese army forced tens of thousands of Koreans into sex slavery.) \u201cBut,\u201d Ramo continued, \u201cevery Korean will tell you that Japan as a cultural and technological and economic example has been so important to their own transformation.\u201d This was definitely not correct.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

GOOD STATS AT LAST<\/strong>
\n 3) Kyodo: Official stats on NJ \u201cTrainee\u201d work deaths & accidents; 2x higher than J worker deaths, and likely understated<\/strong><\/p>\n

Finally, a quarter-century into the horrible government-sponsored NJ \u201cTrainee\u201d program, the GOJ is now releasing actual hard statistics about the people it is killing. And you can see why it took so long\u2013the numbers are shameful enough to warrant a cover-up: Between 2014 and 2017, 22 NJ died (almost all due to workplace accidents, but at least one was probably being worked to death). This is more than twice the on-job fatality rate for J workers. There were also 475 cases of serious accidents to NJ \u201cTrainees\u201d, and, as activists point out below, this figure is probably understated.<\/p>\n

A contrarian might argue that NJ are just accident-prone. But as the article describes below, working conditions are simply awful, not to mention generally illegal. And as as Debito.org has pointed out repeatedly over the decades, \u201cthe program is rife with abuse: exploitation under sweatshop conditions, restrictions on movement, unsafe workplaces, uncompensated work and work-site injuries, bullying and violence, physical and mental abuse, sexual harassment, death from overwork and suicide \u2014 even slavery and murder. Things have not improved in recent years. The Health, Labor and Welfare Ministry announced that about 70 percent of some 5,200 companies that accepted trainees in 2015 violated laws, and in 2016 a record 4,004 employers engaged in illegal activities. The program is so rotten that even the United Nations demanded Japan scrap it.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> (From Japan Times, Jan. 3, 2018, Item 4)<\/p>\n

Anyway, let\u2019s celebrate that we have some official statistics at last, for without them, it\u2019s easy to see why this program can keep going for a quarter-century with little political traction to improve it.<\/p>\n

4) JT: \u201cJapan\u2019s NJ workers reach record 1.28 million with labor crunch\u201d; more grist for the grinder<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kyodo reports that there are more NJ laborers in Japan than ever (1.28 million, of the 2.3 million total NJ registered), and this is largely due to the temporary NJ \u201cTrainees\u201d being brought in under Japan\u2019s \u201cno unskilled labor\u201d unskilled-labor visa policy.<\/p>\n

The big news is that Chinese and now Vietnamese are the two biggest foreign worker nationalities in Japan (I assume the 338,950 Zainichi Korean Special Permanent Residents were not counted as \u201cforeign workers\u201d here), followed by Filipinos and Brazilians (yes, they\u2019re coming again) and Nepalese.<\/p>\n

So all the official transgressions against NJ laborers a decade ago are forgotten, and ever more victims of Japan\u2019s revolving-door visa market are arriving to be exploited and sent home. Seems NJ never learn, but this new crop will find out soon enough.<\/p>\n

BAD STATS AS USUAL<\/strong>
\n 5) JT: \u201cComing of age: 1 in 8 new adults in Tokyo are not Japanese\u201d; underanalyzed stats posing as media peg<\/strong><\/p>\n

JT: [T]his year more than 1 in every 8 new adults in Tokyo\u2019s 23 wards are not Japanese citizens, figures compiled by The Japan Times show. According to data provided by the 23 ward offices, 10,959 new non-Japanese adults live in central Tokyo, or 13 percent of the 83,764 new adults living in the city. [\u2026] Experts attributed Tokyo\u2019s recent surge in the number of young non-Japanese to a flood of foreign residents coming with student and training visas. [\u2026] Those with dual citizenship of Japan and another country are counted as Japanese citizens.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

COMMENT<\/strong>: This is a positive development, but not something all that headline-grabbing as a bellwether. After all, the article barely mentions the NJs\u2019 visa status. Are these Permanent Residents who can stay here forever, and make a difference without fearing the loss of their visa? Or are they on something shorter and thus sweepable (or bribable) with the thud of a bureaucratic stamp of \u201cnonrenewal\u201d? (The article mentions the uptick in student and \u201ctrainee\u201d visas; precisely my point. This is not immigration; it\u2019s a reflection of stopgap labor movement.)<\/p>\n

And the true measure of internationalization \u2014 international Japanese citizens (i.e., Japanese children of international roots) \u2014 are not counted at all, once again showing the \u201cembedded racism\u201d of the process (by deliberately reducing Japan\u2019s level of \u201cforeignness\u201d to more comfortable levels by only counting \u201cpure\u201d foreigners in isolation). Then what is a more newsworthy stat? How about the record numbers each year of NJ residents with Permanent Residency? That never seem to make much news blip. No wonder. That would actually mean something IS changing.<\/p>\n

Instead, we get soft stats in soft newspaper articles like these. Again, fine, but we Old Japan Hands are getting rather sick of hearing prematurely how \u201cJapan is changing\u201d in the media, and getting our hopes up unnecessarily.<\/p>\n

6) Hawaii\u2019s false alarm missile attack of Jan 13, 2018. JT reports: \u201cHawaii residents spooked but Japanese sanguine\u201d. Poor reporting and social science.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Making news recently was the alert on January 13 sent throughout Hawaii that the islands were under nuclear attack. And there were a number of reports of final messages to loved ones and otherwise panicked behavior as people tried to make use of their final moments. Fortunately, it turned out to be a false alarm, but the local government kept us in suspense for 38 minutes. That is where the news is \u2014 the incompetence of local authorities coupled with international tensions fanned by an incompetent president.<\/p>\n

But leave it to the Japan Times to try to draw sociocultural lines around the event. With the smarmy title, \u201cFalse-alarm missile alert spooks Hawaii residents but Japanese sanguine,\u201d it tried to paint Japanese as preternaturally calm while Americans were panicked. Drawing from a humongous sample size of three \u2014 yes, three \u2014 \u201cJapanese\u201d, the JT reported juicy quotes such as this:<\/p>\n

\u201c[Megumi] Gong, [a housewife and college student from Shizuoka Prefecture who has lived in Honolulu for the last three years], characterized the differences between how Americans and Japanese reacted as \u2018fascinating.\u2019 \u2018I don\u2019t know if it is a sense of crisis or an obsession with life, or whether one is more accustomed to emergency situations, but the difference in the responses is fascinating,\u2019 she said. Japanese, Gong said, \u2018are afraid\u2019 but \u2018aren\u2019t panicked\u2019 \u2014 a kind of \u2018it cannot be helped\u2019 attitude. \u2018We don\u2019t call our family to say I love you. We still go to work,\u2019 she said. \u2018Also, we give up fast,\u2019 as if we \u2018will die if the missile\u2019 comes. We \u2018can\u2019t do anything.\u2019\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

COMMENT<\/strong>: Such is the blindness of transplant diaspora, who act, without any apparent social science training, as Cultural Representative of All Japan, wheeled out to represent an entire society of more than 100 million as a \u201cwe\u201d monolith, and taken seriously by media merely by dint of her having Japanese background. And in contrast, at least one of my contacts in Hokkaido (which also had a DPRK missile alert (for real) over Oshima Hantou and Erimo last September) would disagree with the lack of local panic.<\/p>\n

FIGHTING BACK<\/strong>
\n 7) Asahi: Japanese living abroad plan unprecedented lawsuit demanding dual citizenship. Bravo!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s something interesting and something to support if you are a Japanese living abroad \u2014 the maintenance of your legal identity in the form of dual nationality.<\/p>\n

The Asahi reports that several Japanese citizens in Europe unprecedentedly plan to sue the government to abolish the law forcing Japanese to pick one nationality if they take another. Some emigres also want to undo the damage and restore their Japanese nationality.<\/p>\n

Naturally, Debito.org wholeheartedly supports this effort. For too long the embedded binary of \u201cyou\u2019re either Japanese or you\u2019re not\u201d (an Ichi-ro or a Ze-ro) has done untold social damage to people of multiple ethnicities and identities. Nobody in power has ever really listened to them, so now it\u2019s time for the monoethnic Japanese abroad, who want inclusivity for their newfound diversity, to take up the charge.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s hoping they get heard. Because others who have championed this sort of thing (such as MP Kouno Taro nearly a decade ago) got nowhere even in their own ruling political party. Enough Japanese already have dual. Let\u2019s have the law reflect reality (and not institutionalize identity policing) at last.<\/p>\n

8 ) New Years Eve 2017 TV Blackface Debate in Japan (again): Referential Links<\/strong><\/p>\n

With the recent broadcast of an \u201cEddie Murphy homage\u201d (with Japanese tarento Hamada Masatoshi doing blackface) on one of the most-watched shows in Japan all year, Debito.org feels a need at least to mention that there is a hot debate going on about whether Blackface is appropriate in other societies (such as Japan) with a different history of race relations.<\/p>\n

My opinion is that doing Blackface is almost always a bad thing, due to its historical connotation regardless of context. And I add the caveat of \u201calmost always\u201d while struggling to think of any exception, except for purposes of historical grounding behind the issue. (And it\u2019s not limited to blackface: Debito.org has covered racialized media in Japan, broadcast without input from the minorities affected, many times in the past, including here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here.)<\/p>\n

But that\u2019s all I\u2019ll say. I think Baye McNeil has a lock on the issue, and I\u2019ll just refer Debito.org Readers to his most recent Japan Times column, at https:\/\/www.japantimes.co.jp\/community\/2018\/01\/10\/our-lives\/time-japan-scrub-off-blackface-good\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Even better is a YouTube panel discussion sponsored by The Japan Times that involves McNeil, Anthropologist Dr. John G. Russell of Gifudai, and YouTuber Aoki Yuta.<\/p>\n

Dr. Russell\u2019s comments about Japan\u2019s history with Blackface (there is in fact a history, despite the narrative that Japan is ignorant therefore innocent) are particularly salient. Watch if you want a definitive conclusion to the issue of Blackface in Japan for yourself.<\/p>\n

As is tradition, here is JBC\u2019s annual countdown of the top 10 human rights events as they affected non-Japanese (NJ) residents of Japan over the past year. In ascending order:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

10) As Japan\u2019s population falls, NJ residents hit record<\/em><\/strong>
\n Figures released in 2017 indicated that Japan\u2019s society is not just continuing to age and depopulate, but that the trends are accelerating. Annual births fell under 1 million \u2014 a record low \u2014 while deaths reached a record high. The segment of the population aged 65 or older also accounted for a record 27 percent of the total. In contrast, after four years (2010-2013) of net outflow, the NJ resident influx set new records. A registered 2.38 million now make up 1.86 percent of Japan\u2019s total population, somewhat offsetting the overall decline. Alas, that didn\u2019t matter. Japanese media as usual tended to report \u201cJapan\u2019s population\u201d not in terms of people living in Japan, but rather Nihonjin (Japanese citizens), indicating once again that NJ residents simply don\u2019t count.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
