Japan Travel

Japaner bleiben gerne unter sich. Es dürfte kaum ein weiteres hoch entwickeltes Industrieland geben, das eine derart homogene Bevölkerung hat. Nur zögernd nahm das Reich der aufgehenden Sonne Kontakt mit dem Westen auf, mauserte sich aber in wenigen Jahren zu einer modernen militärischen Großmacht.

Like an outdated textbook, the advice seems to be stuck in the 1980s without reflecting the real pace of change in Japan.
