"stealing jobs from Japanese poeple!" I would scream in my black van.

Great for them! Best of wishes for their success and future.

Great but that is still less than 10% of those studying...

Would be nice to see what the rates are for other major economic countries.

tkoind2, I wouldn't be surprised if other major economic countries don't keep statistics on this particular category of humans.

Thank you franz75 for this morning laugher! I usually feel sad when seeing this kind of idiots parading though...

Most of the students also work at part-time jobs while in school, even if they don't (or can't) remain in Japan after graduation.

And how many Japanese "ryugakusei"s are studying elsewhere? seriously, it's not all that complicated of an equation. It's just a way how the world is becoming.
