I can't see the problem in this particular case. Everything was followed to the letter.

As for the unfortunateness of it all, she lost her rights to complain the day she took money to take a suitcase into the country. Stupid woman.

Look I wouldn't be surprised if 70 percent of the Japanese wished foreigners would just not come at all. If you don't like that, go home, that's what I'm doing.

As for the language,

How about the government get serious about English education in this country?

We have done a lot more in Afghanistan than air-raid villages and kill civilians
