Dear Catch;
sorry, my "english" words are so crass... in japanese islands(japan), there are no canadian/amerikan squatters(or homeless people) in japanese islands. most of THEM are incredibly rich people! because foolish jap government support THEM by big money!! if you will be interested in learning jap words, you might be able to teach english to japnese students in japnese islands. if you will apply to the J.E.T. or A.E.T., it will be a cheap/easy way to stay in japnese islands for english speakers in UK, U$A... i recommend english-activists to EAT JAPNESE GOVERNMENT by JET/AET. it will be a big economical supports for your activities.

A Call for Participation in November 3 Solidarity Action of
the Have-Nots in Tokyo:
Resist Social Exclusion! Oppose Globalization and War!
Join us this fall for a broad-based action to unite all
persons facing social exclusion,
the have-nots!
We, the central but not sole, organizers for this call to
solidarity are actively meshed within the daily laborer and
homeless rights movement in Japan. In our work, persons
trapped in homelesslessness and poverty, and others
concerned by the cancerous effects of such social ills on
the well-being of humanity, have joined forces in support of
each other, all the while valuing the independent social and
political action of the homeless community. Our pro-active
work includes addressing the government’s accountability in
protecting the rights of those on the street to both
autonomy and assistance, as well as countering corporations
and businesses’ lack of responsibility in regard to rife
exploitation of their employees as seen in incidents of
unpaid wages and unjustified lay-offs after injury.
However, the reality is that the chances for stable
employment grow continuously slimmer as unemployment grows,
and our sisters and brothers are pushed to the streets in
greater numbers with each day. We owe this reality to the
fact that Japanese society has become pregnant with the
ideals and global standards purveying “survival of the
fittest” and neo-liberal globalization inclining its whole
towards inhumane acts of exploitation and ostracism.
The violence inherent in worshipping market-forces gives
birth to none other than the dire poverty and class
divisions evident in, yes, our “advanced nation” of Japan
itself. Uncontracted laborers, temporary and part-time work
forces, migrant laborers, unemployed workers, elderly daily
laborers, the homeless, and workers as a force have had
their rights expropriated and their contributions expunged
from the labor system.
In addition, the global economy had adequately demonstrated
that it has neither room nor concern for the roles of women,
disabled persons, the elderly, ethnic minorities, sexual
minorities, and any persons who are seen or treated as the
weak or despised in society. The Japanese government,
established to act as protector of the rights of its
citizens, has sworn off its culpability in regard to the
growing violations of their rights. In the name of
structural reform, it is moving ahead with the abolition of
public services and social welfare assistance programs.
Those in positions of financial instability not only suffer
from exclusion from and exploitation by labor structures but
are also pushed to the fringes of society, which ultimately
and gravely threatens their very right to being. This year
over 30,000 persons have committed suicide in Japan; This
serves as just one example of the despair growing
ever-stronger today.
Neo-liberal globalization and war are each one side to the
same coin, as the exploitation and exclusion prevalent
within labor markets is simply the flip side fueling the
inculcation and division of the masses for militarization
and war mobilization.
We, the people, are not pawns to be used and tossed aside
so that a handful of men and women be able to make profit.
Today, the need for a broad-based movement to linking us
together is unambiguous; we must stand face to face against
the proponents of globalization and make our anger heard.
In October of last year, we held a demonstration and rally
gathering, "The October 11th International Solidarity for
the Have-Nots -- Say NO to the Violence of War and
Globalization! The homeless, unemployed, underemployed, and
other countless have-nots marched the streets of Shibuya
with the message that “Society is just not right!" This
year, we wish for nothing more than to broaden or alliance
with sister and brother have-nots for an even larger and
more powerful campaign.
The ostracism we each face is allotted under variegated
pretenses and carries many forms, but at the core, every
time, is the structure system of our current society. We
have the right and responsibility to stop globalization in
its tracks with a bellowing NO! and move on to uncover
together a new world to better all our lives. We must cross
divisionary lines arbitrarily placed by the titles of our
fields and victimizations. We are many peoples, many
movements, with one dream in mind.
