Wonder if anyone here living in Japan and is it tough to get by with minimal japanese language?Moving to the west seems too far from asia pacific and japan seems to be the only sensible choice besides Singapore.

I like the scenery there especially in autumn. I've been there once during autumn, the standard of living is very high. Have you thought of that ? I remembered I bought a big chinese "pao" (包子）at Japan's China Town, it cost me S$ 8 . I got a shock of my life.

I have friends who work there, it seems that they pick up the language quite fast. So language is not a major problem but the standard of living is.

Well assuming he finds a job there it should balance out?

Still....Japan I am so enamoured by their culture!

I had been to Lijiang in China. It is a place where most of the minorities stay. The place is very beautiful and slow pace. Very suitable for retirement. The minorities are able to speak mandarin, thus no problems in communications.

Lijiang is near Shangri-La. Shangri-La is so beautiful that many westeners settled down there by marrying the locals. I also visited the town where the westeners stay. I am still too young to retire but hope to retire in places like Shangri-La when the times come.

Japan is good to visit but not for staying. My personal view.

I like japan pop culture! gothic rock ....mascara .... tanned bimbos in hawt pants.....

The serene environment which I think is what you're portraying this Lijiang place is .... would be good when I'm older and shrivelled.

Yeah, I remembered when I was in Tokyo, I saw the girls there, they were really pretty and very well dressed. I am a lady who can't even get my eyes off them, talk less about guys.

They were so well dressed that my friends and I felt as if we were from the mountains. Next time when I go there again, I will be more mindful of my dressing.

I don't know but I heard japan dun like foreigners who reside there especially chinese and koreans...

Catknight SG

BTW for those who seriously thought of getting a PR there, get at least a JLPT 2 to able to communicate, read and write japanese to make your life more pleasant

Going there for a holiday as a tourist is good, but being a PR there is hard.

Japan is a homogeneous society and they do not feel comfortable having non-Japanese working alongside with them.

Its quite hard to get PR there I suppose. They are least welcoming towards foreigners staying and working there.

Standard of living is high in Japan too.

Catknight SG

Frankly speaking, I feel that the Japanese even more chinese than we are , look at their traditional culture. The only reason I considered moving there is being closer to my ancient roots..alas Japanese do not think much of chinese and koreans:(

Catknight SG

The hanfu movement will be not be a success compared to Japan kimono culture>sad to say unless china go thru a renaissance

lostintransition SG

if you are a chinese...once you learn the language..it'd be easy to blend in. my bro and several friends have lived/worked/studied (some still are) in japan for years...and they all turned out looking/sounding exactly like the japanese...even the japanese can't tell that they are foreigners.

Browse debito.org and see the problems gaijins face and the man happens to be a white professor who become a japanese citizen!
