People who wanted to modernize Japan wanted
to abolish the Japanese language (with all those difficult
kanji) and replace it with English.
They thought that this would make it much
easier for children to master Western science and technology.
Of course, as we all know, this never happened,
but today Japan faces a very different kind of challenge.
Many people think that learning English
in order to communicate with other countries and to compete
in world markets will mean Japan is losing its identity
and becoming a country of "little Americans".
However, Japan lived in the shadow of China
for 1,000 years and managed to keep its Japanese identity.
Most Scandinavians speak excellent English
but they keep their distinctively Danish, Norwegian and
Swedish values and culture, so why shouldn't the Japanese?
Japan has a message for the world, but the
question is whether the Japanese will be able to communicate
this message to the other nations on earth, or will they
be isolated by their inability or reluctance to communicate
in English?

An American friend, who works in an office
near here, told me this story; it happened at an office
party.
Everybody was enjoying the office party
when Masafumi vomited all over the table.
He was helped into a chair by laughing colleagues
while a smiling female office staff cleaned up the mess.
Masafumi went with them to the next bar
and took the last subway home like the rest of them.
My friend said that in the United States
this behavior would not be tolerated and, if it happened
again, Masafumi would not be invited to any more parties.
He said that, although most people in the
United States drink alcohol, drunkenness is generally not
tolerated by most people.
