[Today's Lisa Zate Topic] Today's Japan News; Who is the world for?

 

The Japanese are always serious. The promise has to be fulfilled because I made it, and the time was taught 5 minutes ago in action at school.

For example, when a friend of KIWI said "Let's go out", I asked "When?" And at the same time (Oh no, this is not Japan), I immediately paraphrased it as "Yes.sure"

When invited to a party, nothing goes exactly in time. It will be delayed for 1 hour or 2 hours in NZ.

When school holidays begin, for example, two weeks from this weekend, Japanese count Saturday as 1, but here it has already started on Friday. Even though the child goes to school that morning.

If you borrow $ 1 or $ 2, the Japanese will return it. Most Kiwi people don\'t. 

The Japanese have a strong philosophy. Whether it's right or wrong, there are times when it pushes against people. For example, many people have an attitude of "becoming a friend who suits them" rather than trying to understand their friends. Especially those in their 40s and above. It is a way of thinking full of island nations.

This culture (NZ) looks rough to the Japanese. But culture hasn't started recently. You can't really compare.

A long time ago, parents became enthusiastic about going to cram school after school and studying every day from morning till night, but still having no time to play with friends, they had exams all the time, a mid-term test all the time. There was a period of exam storms outside of school. It has been pointed out from overseas and it has been said that Japanese people have been overworked since they were children.

Just because you are good at it does not mean that you want to do it in the future. However, Japanese parents recommend it. As if to entrust what I couldn't do. The child becomes cramped. Have stress.

This is not entirely out of the question in NZ. After all, children from wealthy families are sent to "good schools" to finish their studies and go to overseas universities. There is no cram school, but there are teachers who support learning as much as a tutor. Even now, the children of the farm still remember the work involving nature and animals, who have been watching their parents run since they were little. And when they grow up, they go on to farming and veterinary careers, that is, many children grow up looking at their parents' backs. There are many things that parents naturally teach as their children grow up. It is more important to learn from parents "live" than to go to a cram school.

We plan for people and their environment with the measuring rods we grew up with. Comparing them, they decide that they are overworked and that they are a little confused because of the lack of competition. However, the people themselves do not know the target to be compared. Rather than not knowing, there is no idea itself. In other words, it's just a habit of the person who compares, the person who is trying to match himself. This narrows the field of view and misses opportunities for knowledge and learning. It's like making a Japanese who doesn't know any other world.

Recent young people is that you want to come out to foreign countries, attempts such as to get good luck the word, let alone are they not and let earns more and more started the business.

The Japanese should fly to the world at least once. In order not to end the island country Japan in the island country. There will be discrimination. Of course there is also a language barrier. However, we should meet more people who have different ethnic ideas and religious lives, and who go out more. Then, you realize what you thought was "normal" and what you thought was "natural". Then you can gradually change from an island nation to a world nation.
