Visas to Japan<\/p>\n
My sister and 20 other persons intended to visit Japan as
\ntourists. Their travel agent applied for visas at the Japanese
\nembassy in Jakarta. Much to the travel bureau's chagrin the visas
\nfor three old ladies were approved but the applications for the
\nothers were rejected. The travel bureau was understandably
\ndisappointed as it lost a source of income.<\/p>\n
I know that there are bogus tourists from poor countries who
\ncame to Japan to get a job. As soon as they do, they disappear
\nfrom the watchful eyes of immigration officials and go
\nunderground.<\/p>\n
For many Asian countries, migrant workers -- legal or illegal
\n-- are an important source of foreign exchange income. Japan as
\nan industrial country needs many laborers and there is always a
\nshortage of laborers for menial jobs: sweeping roads, hauling
\ngarbage, and cleaning sewers. It is common knowledge that the
\nmore educated a population is, the harder it is to find people
\nwilling to do such work -- that's where migrant workers come in.<\/p>\n
