Thank you for spreading our words 🙏🏻🙏🏻🌎😃 #Repost @miyavi.fanpage 【 Interview 】J-rock star Miyavi on mission to change Japan's tune on refugees

While in his lesser-known role as a refugee advocate, Miyavi, aka the samurai guitarist, asks that people look beyond the headline numbers before declaring Japan unwelcoming to asylum-seekers.
Despite taking in only 42 refugees in 2018 -- accepting less than 1 percent of applicants -- compared to 35,198 for the United States and 16,875 for Canada, Miyavi says the bump from the previous year's 20 is encouraging, albeit still underwhelming. "As a UNHCR ambassador, I have to say, talking those numbers is like pulling teeth," says Miyavi, who in November 2017 was chosen as Japan's first Goodwill Ambassador by the U.N. refugee agency.

Actually I envy Japan to control entries, since ever, and protect the country. We have actually way too much refugees, way too much unregistered refugees from violent countries, that increase violence in our cities. Tones of robbery etc .. I lost that safe ambiance we had before, a trust in the air you can feel in Japan, that I miss.
Yes some refugees are so kind, no doubt, but some, are definitely not. They grew up in violence and poverty and only know that. Change that deep conditioning ? Is my hope. Talking about how men disrespect woman in other countries ?? And then, they are doing that here ?? I’ve seen that with my own eyes. Pure new violence in the streets and disrespect with woman. Which I am shocked. You didn’t saw that in your country. And you probably won’t wish that unsafety streets for your girls. I don’t juge your country, I respect their choice. And anyone makes his own choice. @miyavi_ishihara @melody_lee_ishihara #no_more_violence #no_offence_for_kind_refugees??

The numbers of Canada and the US are ridiculous too compared to Europe or other countries. Only Germany accepted 185.000 refugees in 2018.
