Do you think Japan is bad? That Japan doesn't help anyone? That here you are a slave? These were the questions that Leandro Neves from Afrodeks TV did in a Live that aroused a lot of interest in writing this article.
First of all, I want to make it clear that there is no such thing as a perfect country. However, I have observed many negative comments present on subjects that are positive. This is as if the person only knows how to complain about life without having any joy. The Brazilian community in Japan seems disunited, no wonder, we live in the mimimi generation, where people only know how to complain and are not satisfied with anything. In this article I would like to address some issues and rewrite comments that happened on this Live that happened on Facebook. It's worth noting that the words in this article are not mine, I'm just rewriting and I hope you don't feel offended. The Live video is located at the end of the article!
All legal aliens who pay taxes correctly have their rights. It's up to you to pursue your benefits and rights. To say that the Japanese government doesn't help anyone is very ignorant. Japan offers a lot of help! However, those who want rights have obligations! Some still end up being harmed by contractors, don't let that happen! Run after your rights!

Japan helping foreigners
During the Live some people will comment on their positive experiences in Japan. Thinking about the good things is a big step towards having a happy life.
Alessandra Mitani: My son was born premature and spent 6 months in the hospital and when he was discharged he had to spend 2 years using an oxygen balloon. I never paid anything, I received 2 GDE tank that was in the room and 6 small ones for locomotion. He even got help with gasoline to take to the doctor every week.
My son's hospital expenses alone came to 9 million yen and I never had to pay. The government gave diapers, milk to the hospital and then they started to send it to my house monthly. I spent 2 years getting milk help until last February when he finished his middle school.
I earn very well, I have privileges in the factory and I do a lot of work in a Japanese contractor on the weekends. I am treated as a native, I have never been discriminated against, I have studied labor laws and I know my rights and duties. I see that the majority who complain don't speak Japanese and are waiting tantoshas to solve their problems and don't bother to learn the language.
Deborah Okamoto: Until today I receive an oxygen balloon and I have the machine at home. My daughter's surgery cost 20 million yen, if I were in Brazil I doubt I would be able to pay. They paid for everything and my husband is Japanese and has financial conditions. I love this country, I'm grateful.
Thiago de Oliveira: I have a friend who had a motorcycle accident on his way to work, and unfortunately he lost an arm. In addition to earning severance pay, he will receive a pension of 250,000 yen a month for the rest of his life even if he leaves Japan.
During the live I briefly heard about people even getting rice, and a girl who receives 7 thousand ticket for taxi per year.
Slaves in Japan?
Some Brazilians have the courage to say that they are enslaved in Japan. There are almost 200,000 Brazilians in Japan, are they enslaved with Ipad? Car? Traveling to Disney? Shopping? Barbecuing every week? Buying macbook? Slavery is working for a plate of food and being whipped! Slaves don't go to Universal Studios Osaka!
There are people who ride a bike who are more grateful than some people who have everything, live on breastfeeding but complain with a full belly. Do you get angry because you are enslaved inside a Saizeriya? Inside a MacDonald? In fact my entire life I never ate at a MacDonald in Brazil, I only had the chance to eat at one in Japan.
You who are in Japan with a full belly and usually complain and make yourself a slave! Wake up! You have to be thankful for the opportunity to enter Japan! How many want to leave Brazil and can't? If Japan doesn't care about you, it wouldn't even get a visa. You really have the right to complain about the place you live, but what's the need? There is a huge difference between complaining about the place or chasing the rights, which is the main argument that some use to complain.
If you're not getting your rights, make sure you do all the right procedures and pay all taxes. If you're complaining about work too much or not having rights in your contractor, it's not easy, but look for a better one. If you still feel unhappy, look for a place that makes you happy! You may miss your family, you may miss Brazil, but to say that Japan doesn't help is hypocrisy, and if you think you are a slave, the reality is that you are enslaving yourself. Remembering that happiness comes from simple things and not from material goods, maybe you are working too hard on goods and forget about the most important things in life and that's why you are not happy and keep complaining.
