It is not just Japan, I think in almost all countries the reply would be the
same.

Here in the Netherlands lots of people dislike the coming of too may Turks
and especially Moroccons.
(My English is not very good, I mean people from Turkey and Morocco, am not
sure how they are called in English).

Most 2nd and 3rd generation Moroccons get their future wife/husband also
from the originial country bringing in more, mostly illiterate new citizens.

Besides here the fear for Moslims is growing and growing.
85 % of the Dutch do not feel comfortable with the growing Islamic
polupation!
They feel that their surroundings is getting more and more "foreign".
Never seen so many (head)scarves as now, few years ago you hardly saw women
wearing one!

Wonder whether these problems exist in Japan as well?
