Japan plans to recruit 345,000 skilled workers and technical interns from all over the world in 14 different fields from 11 countries. Japan is recruiting against shortages of labour it will face due of an aging and declining population. There will thus be none of the displacements occurring, as in the Gulf, to replace foreign workers by locals. Instead of actively exploring other developed countries, all in Europe, with similarly aging populations, Mr Bukhari is deliberately ignoring an existing opportunity. Of course, Mr Bukhari alone is not to blame.
