Or Foreigners In Japan

Some

By ALBERT AXELBANK
Some “gaijin (foreigners) in Japan feel
p treated bv the immigration and tax offices
Cvwere thieves, rapists or swindlers.
i are a few anecdotes:
i
'Nth trip to the police station, we went

the" *ame rigmarole for the umpteenth time
fAwed them my tax receipts, while I was fishtprising blood pressure. • - ”
««, ‘M hours late in renewing my alien regiscard 'o I was treated like a common crim-

V had to visit the dirty, stinking, lysol-smelling
vfe station in order to report that my wallet was
i arid I felt more like a thief than the actual thief
cinched my " allet. • • ■
. . .
‘Before I left for work, two plamclothesmen came

to my door. 'You are indicted,' one said severely. I put
out my’ hands to be handcuffed. ‘Oh no. it’s not s<>
serious as that. You are two days late in applying for
your visa extension ...”

Pampered, privileged?
These are fragments in rather nightmarish experi­
ences of some gaijin in Japan who don’t think they
are living in Paradise and would rather not be living
here if they could help it. They are, however, a small
minority.
Japanese tend to think that all gaijin in Japan have
charmed lives, are pampered, privileged and free from
cares. But this view is as silly’ as the geisha-cherryblossom-Mount Fuji image which many westerners
have of Japan is ridiculous.
The man who was 24 hours late in renewing his
alien card is an American, 45, who was born in Cali-

fornia.
He says: “I don’t think the Japanese like gaijin. they
wanted to humiliate me at the police station. It re­
minded me at the stories of China's Red Guardi where
a ‘guiltv' person is forced to apologize in public in
front of 10,000 screaming people.”
One of his interrogators made him feel childish anc
stupid, he said, and he got angry* and shouted and
cursed. (But this behavior only proves that whatever
his other attributes, he is not entirely’ free from chiKishness and stupidity.)
“On His Own”
Another American who is outspoken thinks that a
U S citizen is “on his own” in Japan. Hailing from
Denver. Colo., he savs: “If an American gets into
trouble’ the U.S. embassy hates you. It means that one
