"In areas where people don't have jobs and make a living by making drugs, they say, 'Make soba noodles and sell them, we'll buy them.' I'll buy them." And so they do this business. As a result, young people get jobs, and the distribution of drugs around the world and in Japan decreases.
In the seaside towns of Southeast Asia, where the unemployed are overflowing, they say, "Dry small fish and stuff them in bags. I'll buy them." The young men were able to continue fishing and the young women found work.
So schools and hospitals were built in the area, and chronic unemployment and crime were eliminated. (The woman who bags the small fish there does not know what to do with them. She was surprised to learn that in Japan they use it for soup stock or eat it as is.)
There are many areas that have not been devastated by the Japanese-led development of export business to Japan, such as these. You don't report much on these international contributions, do you? Of course, the above projects incur huge losses on the Japanese side in the initial stages, but they continue because of the "people-oriented" aspect of the projects. Of course, sometimes things don't work out as expected. Americans often complain about the closed nature of the Japanese market, but I don't want to hear that from Americans who only look at local people as tools for the sake of profit.
