    Crime rates will also decline in any country increasingly populated by middle aged people and their cats and dogs – and Japanese authorities under report crime especially various forms of abusive within families/peer groups.

    Tokyo uses the “introverted Asian” stereotype to bury other bad news they don’t want to admit to (and to cover up genuinely sociopathic things adult males with families often do.

    Their youth are not as introverted as claimed, and have plenty of casual sex and short term relationships, but when middle class parents find out they discourage this by putting all sorts of feelings of shame and angst into their heads that so they do often find it a lot less hassle to find other distractions.

    Japanese corporates have also badly polluted their environment over decades, particularly by following US “safety” rules that put business and competition before public good and expose workers to some nasty chemicals. This has got to such extent many young women over 30 have fertility problems, so even those who might be of “lower socio-economic status” find it difficult to conceive, plus a lot of middle class couples emigrate to nearby countries with better weather, raising children there or taking those they do already have with them. Only 18% of Japan is habitable anyway, and 25% of that is now radioactive.

    DIY breathalysers were once advertised as hobby electronics projects in the 1980s, around the same time many nations started to crack down on driving (and in many cases cycling) when drunk. The sensor isn’t particularly cheap, it difficult to accurately calibrate it (to the level that would be what the local cops use) without sticking needles in yourself or collecting your own urine and having other suitable equipment to process this, so they fell out of favour when the authorities simply reduced the acceptable limit below the trigger level for these sensors or even made it zero. There exist real breathalysers for smartphones based on the same principle, still not cheap and would leave suspicious data on computer memory likely to survive a crash the road users / passengers may not. it would be available if someone knocks over a pedestrian on their bicycle even if the phone hits the deck and the screen is knackered, making the use of such a contraption even more stupid and sociopathic than it was in “analogue” days…

    Also they have a pretty successful (yet harsh) prison system, and their ‘outsider/insider’ mentality. In a nutshell they simply look out for the good of everyone.
    A tourist even noted that a member of public placed two of their own chairs at a railway station. To her suprise the chairs remained there the whole duration of her stay. Never vandalized or stolen.

    exactly the same can be said for Singapore. Incidentally the young lads of both countries can consume phenomenal amounts of booze, and drugs on top of them and still stay pleasant and friendly, i.e not starting fights or being overly sleazy towards women so provided they don’t keel over from strokes/heart attacks too early in life both countries can say “there is no booze/drugs problem” either.

    I wonder if the person bringing in chairs was a train spotter? You do not normally have to wait for trains long in Japan – I’d be amazed if their very advanced railway lacked the usual benches found in a station, especially with an ageing population.

    Anyone who took their own chairs there in the first place would intend to sit around most of the day and look at trains and take photos, and might be of such age that carrying camera bags and about 4 lenses around would be starting to take its toll. It wouldn’t be abnormal for them to spend a whole week doing this! It is admirable that they brought an extra chair along so if anyone else wanted to join in they could, and would make perfect sense as train spotters tend to pick certain parts of the network and set up vantage points there – its one of those hobbies like amateur radio which seems solitary but actually isn’t, and the Japanese know that all the pictures will end up online for the whole world to see so it is good for their country.

    I thought drugs where quite uncommon though because of the harsh prison sentances for possesion ?

    The cops have to catch people first – as Asian societies are close knit and people are very inquisitive, drug users are usually more discreet, and put so much effort into stopping their parents finding out that the cops would have an even harder time of it. A lot of drugs like benzos and even some opiates aren’t actually as strictly controlled as Europe and are viewed as “medicine” rather than “illegal drugs” – and amfetamine type stimulants can be made using the same chemicals that are used to make electronic components.

    Cops aren’t going to raid electronics factories because their staff are eager to do overtime or send the social workers to a college where the students are staying in class/labs for extra hours. They do still turn over nightclubs and do stop checks just like in Europe, but the smarter folk don’t go to these places anyway or cities with CCTV everywhere and take their drugs in more discreet places. In somewhere like Singapore they will behave like old skool ravers in the UK in the 90s at the events – if they meet an “auntie” or “uncle” (anyone older than them, whether or not related) if anything they will often be extra polite and friendly, so the older person doesn’t think they are “on something” and call 999 on them for anti social behaviour.

    Large scale dealers and those who make selling drugs their main income will get busted and often do get long sentences but it used to be the death penalty, which is virtually abandoned now (Japan did execute a serial killer and some old gangsters who had been in prison for 20+ years already) but other than China there have been very few executions for anything at all in the SE / East Asian nations and the main reason for death penalty was drugs. They are all suffering population decline and a massive demand for the skills/resources of young people (especially those who have education) so they can’t afford to be excessively harsh…….

    Oh i see, thanks for filling me in.
    I really want to visit Japan. Im just so intriqued by their values (especially their politeness) Ive been told Im overly polite by a few people including my boyfriend (I once spend the whole taxi journey talking to this iranian chap and when I got out instead of the premeditated ‘thanks love, you to!’ I said ‘frjbvf love you !’
