Japan received a record 19,628 asylum applications in 2017, but only 20 were successful, according to preliminary figures released by the Justice Ministry on Feb. 13.

There were 8,727 more applications compared with 2016, when 28 people were granted refugee status. The total number of asylum seekers in 2017 marked a high for the seventh straight year.

The outcome was criticized bv Saburo Takizawa, chairman of Japan for UNHCR, a nonprofit organization assisting the U.N. Refugee Agency, who said it calls into question the relevance of Japan’s system granting refugee status.

“Japan’s system that rescued only 20 individuals (in 2017) is losing the meaning of its existence,” he said.

Among the 20 individuals who were recognized as refugees were five Egyptians, five Syrians and two Afghans.

Four Syrians, three Burmese and 38 other asylum seekers were refused refugee status, but were allowed to stay on in Japan out of humanitarian consideration, according to the ministry.
 
Epic BS... Japan has one of the most xenophobic cultures on the planet.

What Japan understands is being Japan, apples and oranges to the cultures and social conditions of other nations.
 

As I previously stated
maybe we should take a page out of the Japanese playbook. Japan refuses to open up their country to
immigration even though they have a BIRTH RATE that is more accurately described as a death rate.
Has Japan suffered from a lack of diversity?

'Reduced to rubble in 1945 & only the size of Montana with fewer resouces than Momtana Japan still can boast of an
economy 1/3 of ours & in some ways our superior in manufacturing & technology.' It rotates with Germany as either
the 3rd or 4th economic power in the world depending on which had the better year.

'The drive of ethnic groups to separate and create nations in which there own unique culture, language & faith are
dominant is among the most powerful drive of mankind.' It's not a bad or a good thing IMO but you're swimming up
stream not to acknowledge the power of ethnonationalism.

'Hiroshima in 1945 was in ashes & ruin at that same time Detroit was the mightiest industrial hub on earth.
70 years later Hiroshima is a gleaming city & Detroit a burnt out shell.' Why? Could it be that the USA
up until that time period practiced nationalism itself before the age of 'diversity' since then our
fortunes have tended downward.

Japan & China practice economic & ethnonationalism' & we do not. The success of nationalism is there
for all to see, Trump zeroed in on this & we need a heavy dose of it to stop the bleeding!
 
I'm surprised that Japan let that many in.

They truly understand that multiculturalism DOES NOT WORK.

Glad to see we in America are finally beginning to emulate Japan.

Now we just have to shut the spigot completely OFF.

What changed in immigration mid-seventies.

Something abrubt that would change the economic trajectory for over 80% of American workers.

They also have a fantastic gun policy.
 
So. In a country of more than 300 million people where approx 1/3 are not 'white' (ethnically/racially)...is the idea that we'd be better off all of one race/ethnicity...and I'm thinking you all mean white?

How would that be accomplished, exactly?

And what makes you think ALL the white people want it either?

And out goes the argument that the USA has higher gun crimes then other nations, we the USA cannot be evenly compared with other nations.

When did I do that?

Who said you said it, you just made my point for me that we can't compare the USA with other nations, we are completely different circumstances and culture.
