Dear Dr.Biz.

My reason of using the word "invasion" was pointed to Skywalker who used that same word in connection of article above and his sentence "Now they are trying to make another invasion by sending their porn star".

I do agree with you that Japan is one of the few foreign countries which brought employment opportunities in a grand scale and money to Indonesia, without being ridiculed by a shaky infrastructure (e.g. the quality of supply roads, import taxes, power supply), religious barriers (see VJ82's comment of today) and fanatics who are looking for every opportunity or make up reasons to make themselves heard, corruption by local partners and local authorities as they are encountered along the way, acts of terror, foreigner hate as injected into the minds of children by certain "clerics" in some areas of Indonesia, the unfortunately relatively low educational standard (which again is a perfect breeding ground for groups like the "Islamic Defenders Front - FPI" and similar organizations),and so on and on.

And BTW - I do drive and American branded car with four letters,BUT I am considering to switch to a Japanese brand - not that I like their cars more but simply for economic reasons (a wide service network, easy accesible cheap spare parts, easy resale, etc.)

Skywalker:

And another thing, Mr. Sky, I do have religion. And in my religion, they don't teach us something like yours where it says "Religion on God it's worth to death". No offense... but your so called "Religion on God it's worth to death" thing, it's really unpleasant to read.

To Roland,

Japan has invaded Indonesia with their products? kasian Indonesia. Japan did it with many countries. why? cause their products are better. I bet you drive toyota and not Timor.

and profit does not go only to Japan. every foreign business operating here has to have a local partner , PT something something. So local people also cash a lot of profit. on what? on selling japanese goods. Japanese at least invented sth. spent money on research and dev. and indonesian businesses what they did? just got the licence, sell the product and cash profit.

so please dont give me this silly explanation

be more objective.............

regards from sane observer of the situation

Dear Skywalker. Japan has "invaded" the country long time ago (economically) - take in consideration companies as Toyota, which holds a multi billion Dollar market share here (around 40 % of all cars sold p.a.) plus an abundance of other Japanese consumer electronic brands.

About your comment "Indonesia - The country of religion and culture. When everything has it rules"

That country is called UTOPIA, but for sure NOT Indonesia (not yet unfortunately)!

Anyway, not to sway too far, criminalizing and putting a religious taboo on porn is the wrong approach - ignoring would be the correct one! Remember - Indonesia is one of the countries with the highest amount of prostitutes and child porn (understanding though the economic reasons for that, but not the reason of polygamy which is promoted and tolerated by Islam faith).

God bless you!

skywalker:

Ya. But u forgot another thing dude. The people of INDONESIA are selling her dvds here. And surprisingly, your people love it very much. And not to mention, since you know Miyabi, I suppose you're also one of those viewers at home. So where's your so called RELIGION and CULTURE.
