In this documentary, we delve into a heated debate within Japan’s media landscape about the pressing issue of immigration. As Japan grapples with a severe population decline and an aging society, the conversation around welcoming more foreigners into the country has intensified. Key topics include: Population Decline: With one of the world’s lowest birth rates, Japan faces a demographic crisis that threatens its future. Senior Population: The rapidly increasing senior population puts a strain on social services and the economy.

Japanese Politicians and Government: How are Japan’s leaders addressing the population crisis and labor market challenges? Pros and Cons of Immigration: Exploring the benefits and potential downsides of increasing the number of foreigners living and working in Japan. Working in Japan as a Foreigner: Insights into the experiences of foreigners in Japan’s labor market and their contributions to the economy. Join us as we navigate this complex and critical issue, analyzing perspectives from various stakeholders and media outlets. Is immigration the solution to Japan’s demographic challenges, or does it present new obstacles? How will Japan handle the coming population decline and economic crisis? Watch to find out!
