“Things Foreigners Living in Japan Should Know”

“There is a Japanese saying: ‘The grass is always greener on the other side.’ It means that people fail to recognize the value of their own environment and possessions while seeing others’ as better. Some Chinese people and other foreigners say that Japan is a comfortable place to live, but due to ill-mannered and inconsiderate foreigners, including some from China, Japan is no longer as clean and comfortable as it once was. If you don’t want to risk dying from viruses or earthquakes in Japan, I suggest returning to your own country.”
