Japanese Leaders Are Patriotic, Rejecting Mass Immigration As An Answer To Declining Birthrates
This I’ve said in all my writing on immigration, and in response to the "demographics are destiny crowd" (Mark Steyn being among them). See: "Beck, Wilders, and His Boosters’ Blind Spot" (2010) Not being traitors to their own, Japanese leaders are having none of it. Japan will not accept mass immigration, says Masashi Mori, the mayor of Toyama. Efforts to raise the birth rate have had little success, although there are a few exceptions (see article). The only alternative is to learn to live with far fewer people. That implies great upheaval, which Toyama hopes to minimise.
