Living in a foreign country for a long stretch is like embarking on a big adventure that totally transforms you.
You’re constantly soaking up new experiences, which can change the way you see the world and even who you are. It’s all about finding your footing in a new culture while still holding onto your own roots.

That was the journey of Tham Mao Shen, a 28-year-old Malaysian who’s been living in Japan since 2014. Born and raised in Alor Setar, Kedah, Tham’s got a story that’s all about adapting to the land of the rising sun while still holding onto his roots.
Japan used to be the country everyone looked forward to go for the past 2 decades when China was still an emerging 3rd world country coming out from its slumber.You’re constantly soaking up new experiences, which can change the way you see the world and even who you are.

Everything was the newest, funky and hyped. Even their internet access had technologies no where else in the world had and claimed to be the fastest.Also the food and nice nature conservation efforts.
Even having to put up with the very strict emigration laws due to their high nationalism pride and image.
Every rich fag would want to send their child there to study and eventually settle down there.
Not just Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, India, Europeans and even Americans wished to go there and become a naturalized citizen.
But it's no longer the case today.
With a growing ageing society still stuck with seniority mentality, aggressive competition for innovation challenged by their emerging neighbors such as China and South Korea, natural disasters and radioactive water contamination. The world corrupted elites are now thinking of their safety relocating there.
China is now their most fiercest competitor in every way. Being way more efficient than them now because they don't have seniority mindset, pay much more than them, hungry for innovation, in pricing and commit in way bigger volumes.
Sucks be those who miscalculated and wasted their 2 decades of their lives only to be disappointed.
Japan standards are usually not recognized elsewhere even in China, European Union and other parts of the world.
They always wanted to be unique and different from the rest of the world which was a advantage for them such as their technology standards that doesn't follow international convention.
To sum it up even the Japanese themselves are looking to kluar their own country for brighter career prospects even to work in their arch rival countries such as China, US and South Korea for better pay prospects and remunerations.
Fated decline. Good thing never last.
