We found a lot of problems on foreign residents through our study but I’m sure some of you may not have known about these problems or have had trouble knowing how get along with them when you’re in those situations.
If you are currently in this situation, please do not worry alone. Why don’t you visit a consultation service in HICE or in Hamamatsu City ?
We think that the reason for these problems is that Japanese people do not fully understand the cultural differences. Perhaps the way me treat foreigners makes them uncomfortable or uneasy. In order to solve this problem, we need to broaden our horizons so that we can understand other cultures and change our ways of thinking.
But before we get to that, our main problem is that.
”A lot of people don’t know foreign residents living around us. So we should know more about them”
If we don’t know them, can’t change because we can’t respond appropriately to them and we can’t change ourselves at all.
We would like many people to know about these things and to think about the future with us, and how we should move forward based on this knowledge. We also hope that many people will be able to communicate more easily with people from other countries and become more interested in the concept of “multiculturalism”.
Let’s start communicating with foreigners now and deepen our understanding of each other!
Thank you for reading !!
