Views of Japan

(By Leonardo)

What kind of society do what the Japanese do?

After suffering one of the most devastating natural disasters ever  known, the Japanese people have demonstrate that they form the most developed human community on earth.  Their behavior and the way they have responded is impressive. No robbery, no abuse has been committed after this catastrophic  event.

The response of the tsunami and earth-quake victims in following the instructions given by the authorities, gives us an idea of what kind of education  they receive. We could think that the behavior is due to a strict military dictatorship as in China or North Korea. However, it is the success of the real democracy. The last survey indicates that most of the Japanese agreed the Government increase  the taxes for helping the victims and the Country after this disaster.

Therefore, people of other countries should learn from the Japanese and try to improve the compromise with the society in which we live, helping the group before thinking of the individual.
