>TOKYO, Feb 3 (Reuters) - Japan needs about four times more foreign workers by 2040 to achieve the growth path the government has outlined in its economic forecast, a group of Tokyo-based public think tanks said on Thursday.
>The findings highlight Japan's growing reliance on migrant labour to make up for a shrinking population, while its ability to attract overseas talent has been thrown into question by strict COVID-19 border controls that have shut out students and workers. read more
>Japan must boost the number of foreign workers to 6.74 million by 2040 to sustain average annual economic growth of 1.24%, based on a bullish "high-growth" scenario the government has set out in its long-term projection, the think tanks, including a research arm of the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) affiliated with the foreign ministry, said in a report.
"We must discuss accepting foreign workers with a greater sense of urgency, as the competition for workforce would grow in the future against countries like China," JICA president Shinichi Kitaoka told a symposium on the research on Thursday.
"We need to take actions to make Japan attractive in the longer term, a country to be chosen by foreign workers."
>The study assumed Japan would lose more than 10% of its domestic workforce over the next two decades.
No, I don't think I will. In fact, I think I'll keep the "corona" border restrictions in place for several more decades, so you savages can't even study or sightsee over here.

Pretty much. Thing is, if some (((international bank))) offers to buy Japanese bonds on the condition that they mutt the country with Senegalese niggers, will they refuse? Could (((American corporations))) create a situation where Japan is forced to seek substantial credit in the bond market?

Because my girlfriend lives in Vietnam, and she wants to live here someday. I refuse to cheat on her, so I am not moving to Japan instead.
