Japan's new green card system (update)

I posted two videos before, and this is the update.
PM Kishida recently relaxed the system for foreigners with a master's degree and an annual income of 20 million (U$150k) or more to acquire human resources with a new preferential treatment system.
Japan has been facing shrinking population issues for decades and we need more foreign people to come and live here.
A simple immigration policy could be a good solution, I know, however, it is a highly controversial agenda in the political field.
Individuals with a status of residence as an "Engineer/Specialist in Humanities/International Services," which are a type of work visa, are generally unable to apply for permanent residency in Japan until they have resided in the country for a period exceeding 10 years. However, under certain conditions, it is possible for such individuals to become eligible to apply for permanent residency after having resided in Japan for either 3 years or 1 year.
The term "Highly Skilled Foreign Professional" is used to describe foreign nationals possessing advanced specialized abilities and who are expected to contribute to academic research or economic development in Japan. This includes foreign nationals residing in Japan with the status of residence "Highly Skilled Professional," as well as those with the status of residence "Engineer/Specialist in Humanities/International Services" who have earned a score of 70 points or more in the highly-skilled professional point calculation. These individuals are able to apply for permanent residency after having resided in Japan for either 3 years or 1 year, once the 10-year rule for applying for permanent residency has been relaxed.
Preferential immigration treatment based on the point-based system for highly skilled professionals 　(in English, points system)

Sounds like that "highly educated, rich people are welcome in Japan." It is nowhere visa required statement.

[@88divinegrace]

Thank you for sharing.

[@williamherve8925]

I wish I can come and live in Japan one day. Keep up the good work 💪

[@cetriyasArtnComicsChannel]

Sounds like they're looking higher income for tax. I'm sure there's people who will take thus but thr same type master degree holders would not get paid that much in japan...
The university graduate one sounds better.
Hope they allow easier business visa and digital nomad visa

What if you don't have a masters but exceed the income requirement?

[@akiyajapan]

It's not enough. You'll have to find a job in Japan that offers multi-year contracts and stay here for quite a few years before you'll ever be able to successfully apply for permanent residency.

I feel the barrier is still too high, and little backward to put a lot of focus on educational certification. If you look at nureal diversity, or how many of the world top people have school drop outs, or dyslexia, in fact dyslexia in verity of forms is common in MIT or NASA professionals. I love Japan and go every year, but this is better than the past, but not going to help grow the economy, or the aging population issue, it’s just elitist and educational bias stating if you have the masters your some how amazing, no your someone who can afford to be in education a long time, and will bring that debt to Japan, and are very good at writing papers and taking tests.

[@akiyajapan]

Agreed. The smartest, richest, and most successful people usually don't have degrees. However, Japan wants worker drones.
