Dumb. Discriminatory. Unfair.
Posted in: The Fukuoka mayor is banning public servants from drinking alcohol for a month; the Osaka mayor has declared war on tattoos on civil servants. What do you think of all this?

That she couldn't deal with real life and killed herself is not TEPCO's fault. She's the only one guilty.

Lately I've seen a lot of people riding their bicycles on the road against the traffic in Tochigi. You gotta be careful but you also gotta stop being so dumb.

Because there is no need to learn the language. Once they graduate they won't use it. Take for example Microsoft customer service in Japan, you call them and not a single person can speak English. Yeah, Microsoft customer service. Unless people start believing it is necessary to learn the language in order to success in the real world, they won't do anything. If companies and other businesses out there start making it a requirement (sort of like Rakuten did), then people might feel like "I need to speak English"... maybe.
