  1. It was really interesting interview, with some interesting opinions. For instance, about perspectives of Japan in future. Probably, it's impossible, even if people wish so, to leave everything completely unchanged. However, I agree with the comments saying that a wise, reasonable immigration policy is indeed required, not such as in some European countries, where uncontrolled immigration and no real assimilation of immigrants with the country's culture have been causing a lot of serious problems. And I also didn't know about these drinking habits in Japan. In consequence, is there in Japan a bigger social and health problem with alcoholism, if people tend to drink almost everyday? In my country people of course drink alcohol, but I think that few people drink so often, like six days a week (it's easy to get addicted soon in this way). And you usually don't go to drink with your boss, unless there is some special occasion, for instance some integration trip once a year or sth like that. I like also what he says about visiting some places other than only those most known tourist attractions and big cities. I'd like to go to such places one day where you can see also the beauty of Japan's nature.
