being in japan

Well I've not been to Japan but I simply admire their discipline based on your post. I also do believe Singapore is a county with a lot of discipline as well. Look how prosperous and clean this country is. Indeed a country with disciplined people tends to be prosperous don't you think so?

Hey hi. I am from India. My sister and her family is now in Japan for more than 5 years. She loves Japan a lot. She always tells us about the people in Japan. They are well disciplined, well mannered and all. Even for getting into the bus, they will immediately form a queue itseems. I wish i could see that once. Hehe. The only reason why she wants to come back to India is the cost of living. She has two children. Studies for two children in Japan will be more costly. She never minds about the earthquakes also. hehe.

Yeah...wow I envy you. It's my dream to live there and have a job there as a game developer for Square-Enix. My parents are there now, and yes the earthquakes are really giving them headaches. But then it's the best place for me. Next year I may be going there with my brother. I'm kind of excited and not, because I want to go there first time with my girlfriend. Anyway I also believe Japan to be like that, always striving for perfection, I think it has something to do with their Shintoism affecting the culture. Anyways thanks for sharing that.

I have never been to Japan, but would defntly like to go there and more eager to go there after reading your post...i dont mind living amidst earthquake as long as the people living around us are, as you said, well-disciplined which in itself explains the characters of people living out there, no wonder they survived the world war and one among the best now

I have always wanted to visit Japan though I have heard that it is expensive there. I read a travel guide that suggested a traveler with $1000 could spent 67 days in India or 14 days in Japan. My friend works for a tour operator and she went there on a cut price deal. She loved it there. My brother-in -law went there on a business trip for three months and really enjoyed his time there. Most of all I would like to fly into Osaka and then go to Kyoto. I would get a train for one week and try to see as much as possible in a short space of time due to the high cost of accommodation, food and transport.

Lucky you. After my recent trip in Taiwan I want to visit Japan next. I have heard many good things about it and I know I will have a great time if ever. But I didn't know about the earthquake thing. I was thinking of maybe looking for work opportunities in that area by next year but I'm not so sure if with my job experience there are some vacancies.

i am not japanese, but know a few missionaries in japan and know a little bit about their customs and all. they are very well organized and their customs are very different than here. i especally like the way that people are treated - there is a lot of respect shown to every one; not like here at all.

Yes, I think they are generally disciplined people. They have manufacturing firms here in the country and you just can see their culture from their management.

I think I saw somewhere on a television that traffic enforcers there are females, and they don't have any weapons.

If we could adapt that trait of discipline, what a difference isn't it?..

"Where in this world can you see a policeman patrolling the city without a gun on his waist? only in Japan."

Actually, in Britain too, our police aren't as a rule armed

all the best urban

Japanese r labourous and discipline. They love their own country though few Japanese consider foreigners as nobody! There are good people as well as bad people in every country. Even homer sometimes nods. However, most Japanese have lots of good manners including polite, friendly and kind. They always keep their streets cleans. U have few chances to find a sale cheater. For example, the prices of a bowl if noodle are all the same no matter u r in a alleyway or on Fuji.
My grandpa is Japanese while I am Chinese. Yesterday is history! Chinese do have lots of things to learn from Japan. The world is just awesome if u love the whole world. At least, good manner has no nation boundary, I guess!
