Re: Why is there no looting in Japan after the earthquake?
Agree like for westerner i think its pretty hard to tell japanese apart from chinese.
But interesting part playing Yakuza 3 i notice that when the Japanese showed off the chinese chef. The chinese chef was very paled in complexion compared to the yakuza which had more darker complexion but not by much. You can see this also in shenmue games, where the Japanese try to differ the chinese from the japanese.
[quote="Flake"]The Japanese are a very xenophobic people and are not always kind to those who are not Japanese. A modern day example would be the way Korean and Chinese remittance laborers are treated. This is the natural result of having a 99% homogeneous population and a long, long history of cultural isolation.

I used to have that same difficulty, but having spent years learning Chinese from Mainland Chinese teachers and traveling all throughout Asia made me able to distinguish between most Asians fairly effortlessly. The Japanese really look nothing like most Asians.AznKhmerBoi wrote:Agree like for westerner i think its pretty hard to tell japanese apart from chinese.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

i do agree to certain extent... but being asian myself i do surround myself with alot of Asian national. But i do think theres there are plenty who are in the grey area.
Its not so black and white...some japanese men can pass more for Southeast asian than mainland chinese. As for Japanese women ... many asian women throughout asia can alter there appearance to look like them in term of fashion and hairstyle.
