The U.N. refugee agency has urged Japan to resettle more asylum seekers, its chief said on Monday, pressuring the country to help solve a global crisis after giving refugee status to just 3 Muslims since the beginning of 2017. On the other hand, the UN never pressures the oil-rich Arab Gulf States including super-wealthy Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait and Bahrain, none of which have offered sanctuary to a single Syrian refugee.
Reuters (h/t Marvin W) Japan is one of the developed world’s least welcoming countries for asylum seekers. It accepted 28 in 2016, despite applications from a record 10,091 people.
It has since 2008 given home to limited numbers of refugees through a so-called third-country resettlement scheme, resettling a total of 152 people – mostly ethnic Karen people from Myanmar living in Thai and Malaysian camps. Multiculturalism is seen as destructive to Japanese society, traditions and culture. Japanese pride themselves on the homogeneous nature of the country and their immigration policies reflect that.
“That program is very small, about 20-30 refugees a year,” U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees Filippo Grandi told a news conference in Tokyo. “I have asked the government to consider whether it could be expanded.”
Japan’s reluctance to accept refugees mirrors a wider caution towards immigration in a nation where many pride themselves on cultural and ethnic homogeneity. Its record at home has drawn sharp criticism from international human rights groups, and has been at odds with its traditional status as a major international donor on refugees.
But Japan’s donations to the UNHCR have slipped: in the year to Oct. 2, it was the fourth-largest donor, giving $152 million, compared to the second-largest four years ago.
According to Human Rights Watch, when looking for solutions to the global refugee crisis, Japan is often identified as a country that could do more. It contributes generously to the United Nations refugee agency but does very little in terms of accepting asylum seekers in Japan, especially MUSLIM asylum seekers.
The Tokyo Reporter reported that of the handful of Muslim refugees Japan did accept last year, two of them, aged 22 and 16, have already gang-raped, assaulted, and robbed a 31-year-old Japanese female.
In 2012, there was a Muslim protest (below) in Tokyo against the Coptic Christian filmmaker who made the film “Innocence of Muslims” about Mohammed.
Japan’s Justice Ministry said it received a record 7,586 asylum applications in 2015, up 50 percent compared to the year before…but only accepted 27 refugees including 6 from Afghanistan, 3 from Syria, 3 Ethiopians, and 3 Sri Lankans. And one of the reasons for this policy is this: Of the 27 Muslim ‘refugees’ taken in by Japan in 2015, two Turkish nationals have already gang-raped a woman
Japan Times In 2015, riots between Turks and Kurds took place in front of the diplomatic mission in the Japanese capital city of Tokyo. Two police officers were among those injured in the confrontations. The clashes erupted amid the Turkish army’s military campaign against members of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK).
al-Jazeera Japan is the world’s third largest economy and runs the tightest refugee recognition system among industrialized economies. The country has long been nervous about an influx of refugees into its homogeneous society and has tightly restricted the number it accepts. The ministry said number of Muslim refugees (27) accepted in 2015 and 2016 was a jump from 11 in 2014 and six in 2013. However, most of them were from Indonesia.
Japan says that many people claim asylum in Japan to find work, encouraged by access to renewable work permits for people applying for refugee status.
It officially rejects unskilled migrant workers, even as a fast-shrinking and ageing population blunts the potency of government efforts to rouse the economy from over two decades of sluggish growth and deflation.
The Justice Ministry, which oversees refugee recognition, is weighing steps including restrictions on work permits for asylum seekers to curb what it deems “abusive” applications.
I admire Japan for this. The U.S. should have such resolve. Keep the satanic spawn out of your country.
Keep up the resistance Japan as your will example will help to stiffen the resolve of others.
Our new incurably progressive Prime Minister has put a feeler out to accept Manus Island “refugees” from Australia (read pakistanis etc) as she’s obviously too thick to pick up on all the violence from the religion of pieces, and she likes turdeau from Canada which tells me all I need to know about her. I hope it’s only a one term (three year) government because they are the biggest pack of wallies you’ll ever see.
Three too many!
Japan is a muzrat no go zone in the way no go zones world wide ought to be
The Japanese are very intelligent creatures. They are smart enough to realize what Islam means to a country’s culture.
If muslims there start getting huffy demanding, or commit knifing or vehicle jihad, zero muslims will be allowed in in the future. And those living there will quickly be made to understand that they best learn their place; shariah will never dictate, not even in the most minor or insignificant way, to Japanese.
Please Japan. DO NOT DO IT!!!! You have a right to maintain your culture!!! Let the world see how nice a country can be when it’s not infected with muslim filth. Because that is what the globalists are really scared of; how nice a country can be without this demonic ideology.
muslim controlled United nations, still trying to invade all parts of the world. They expect to enter other countries where they rape terrorise and kill,because its their way of life. How about 60 million infidels going to the sand pits and doing the same to them. TIT for TAT as we used to say.
I agree with some of the posters. Three too many. Wish we only had three in the USA. Time to clean house.
Good for Japan. I also agree the UN is a waste of time and resources. Kick them out too.
Good on you Japan, don’t take in the creatures of Islam like the West and in the long run you will be FAR FAR better off.
Japan is a very safe country (THE SAFEST IN THE WORLD, THE POLICE GET BORED), no terrorism and women can walk the streets at night unlike Sweden.
The UN has put Saudi Arabia on the Human Rights Council. A country that beheads political opponents, has one of the worse religious freedom/civil rights records in the world and FUNDS terrorism. The UN has also put Saudi Arabia on the Women’s Rights Commission, HA HA HA!!!!, they a terrible terrible record on female rights….unbelievable!
The UN is a corrupt joke penetrated by the MAD DOGS of Islam and their OIL MONEY!
Read this to see what Saudi Arabia civil rights are like if you are ignorant:

The SUM UP……. the UN is a disgraceful
The only reason moslems should be allowed into Japan …
Three to many.
Refugees? No
Migrants? No
Redeployed troops? Yes
Bill Clinton tried to be like their prophet by taking 26 flights on Jeffrey Epstein’s “Lolita” pedophiles sex plane. Hildebeast Clinton only took money from rabid reptile followers of prophet of ebola, anthrax and drug resistant tuberculosis ?
UN, GO TO HELL
Quran (3:56) – “As to those who reject faith, I will punish them with terrible agony in this world and in the Hereafter, nor will they have anyone to help.”
There’s no such thing as a Muslim refugee or Muslim asylum seeker. Muslims are ALL INVADERS who invade to CONQUER Hated Non-Muslims as commanded in the BLOOD SOAKED QURAN WAR BOOK —
Quran (3:151) “Soon shall We cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers…”
Although Japan took very few Muslims, the FILTH — SATAN’S SPAWN, already Ganged Raped Japanese girls. Japan DEPORT ALL the Muslims!!!
God Forever Bless Japan! Japanese leaders are possessed with the highest ethics and REFUSE to take in more of Barbaric Savage, Warlord Mohammad’s CRUEL Soldiers!!!
Japanese leaders are a Light in this Dark World! Outstanding role models of what a leader should be!!!
Japanese leaders cannot be bought! Japan’s leaders refuse to sell their souls and refuse to sell out their precious nation to Global Islamic Conquest and Enslavement!!!
If only our nations had such wonderful leaders!!!
And can WE for once stop talking/texting about “REFUGEES”…. If it was in fact war torn refugees fleeing for their lives, they would be mixed gender of all ages!!!! There is NO such thing as muslim refugees from 100% muslim countries where muslims kill muslims!!!
If that was truly the case, why hasn’t a single 100% muslim controlled country EVER intervined to control the situation or offer assylum????
Why do WE need the USA, Brittain, Europe, Aus, Ect. Etc. Etc to keep the peace for muslims in a muslim country controlled by 100% muslims?????? Let muslims kill muslims and let’s help them all by sending ALL muslims to allah in HELL!!!
The Christian Bible was written in a place where Christians and Jews lived….. The Entire Christian, Jewish and Catholic faiths were born in a place where NONE of the 3 faiths or beliefs are present today!!!!
Declare yourself as 1 of those 3 in public, and you will be executed the next day!!! Yet, WE take those savages into our countries!! WE turn our backs on OUR own people and welcome these savages into OUR lives….
WE, the people of Europa, are NO longer the PURE WHITE, CHRISTIAN, CIVILIZED, CLAN… WE deserve what is coming to us!!!! OUR history, OUR legacy, OUR existance will be ERASED by the muslims…. Just like the entire middle east once were and NO longer are!!!!!
Oh Fox, I’m literally crying at reading your post. There truly seems no way back from the abyss that is now Western Europe and I am so scare that the U.S. will go down this same road.
Do NOT dump the war against islam purely on the shoulders of Japan and then expect Japan to clean up OUR shit!! I sallute Japan and their people, I also support and respect everything about Japan, but muslims and islam are NOT only Japan’s problem and WE should NOT expect Japan to solve OUR muslim problems!!!!!
That is 3 muslims toooo many!!!!!! Little by little the muslims WILL take over the entire world!!! Islam WILL rule and destroy the planet!!!! Just as mohammad said…. Just as satan, aka allah, wants!!!! And it WILL happen, because WE allow it to happen, little by little, day by day, muslim by muslim….
Bravo Japan! Don’t let even one muzzi into your country.
So the freaking un wants more countries to sacrifice their own hard earned money and land to help the MUZSLIME FREAKS who, because of their IDIOT “religion”, can’t and won’t help themselves. SCREW THE STUPID U.N. way to go JAPAN. Wish we would start GETTING RID of all the nasty evil muzslime here in OUR USA.
Bad move by Japan to even take in the token 3 refugees. As bad a move as the Pope taking in Syrian Refugee families into the Vatican as refugees. Japan is facing a negative population growth, and of course the Vatican does not have a population growth to begin with. Not anymore, with Muslims entering the scene. They will be fruitful, multiply like never before, conduct love Jihad, take on multiple local wives, and soon Japan would have a big problem on its hands! Better for them to give the UN the middle finger salute, and point fingers at the nations of the Middle Earth and how they do not take in a single refugee despite sharing so much in common with the refugees.
Japan sets their own policies, as it’s not under the aegis on the Dis-United Nations. Their lawmakers obviously have a backbone, unlike the Euro Wusses. They have no intention of contributing to their own demise.
Stand tall Japan. Smart.
Japan has always been able to survive, come what may. Proud of their heritage, the feeling that the Japanese are “one people”, has gotten them through terrible times in history. They put their own people first, and that is their biggest asset.
Japan can flip the bird to UN.
Hey, people of Japan, take it from the rest of us, don’t do it!
The UN is a joke “USA should get out!”
A very dangerous IslamoCommunist joke.
Agreed. And take its money with it!
When the reported says in the second vid, – so this is a peaceful protest, & you’re asking for the beheading/killing of the person that made the vid?
Then the moz always starts playing the victim card straight away, redirecting the interviewer away from the murder aspect, when they’re bullshitting about being peaceful. States straight away that moz want to die for their pirate. No mention of the murder part, just the moz dying.The reporter should’ve state then why don’t you go on hunger strike, or dare I state the bleedin’ obvious, & commit suicide. Why murder others? Could it be that its all about mafia style policing of murdering anyone who gets in the way of the progression of the Islamic State?
Japan took in 3 Muslum immigrants this year? That’s three too many.
In an orderly, civilized country like Japan, when their Muzzrats riot, they should just open fire, or- round up & deport. They should not tolerate this behavior in their country. Terrorism will be next.
“U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees Filippo Grandi told a news conference in Tokyo. “I have asked the government to consider whether it could be expanded.””
Why is the UN High Commissioner being so racist in singling out Japan for the honour?. Why hasn’t he asked China to accept these cultural enrichers? China has much more land area than Japan
. And why hasn’t he asked Russia – which has 1/6 of the earth’s land surface and only 150 million in population. And those ‘refugees’ can easily walk to Russia from the Middle East.
Surely the Commissioner is able to convince the Japanese to take these people who will do nothing but enrich the economy and social fabric of Japan – just as they have done in their own countries. No doubt the Commissioner feels they can teach the Japanese a thing or two about productivity and enlightened social policies.
What is wrong with these Japanese losers? Why can’t they disease themselves like everyone else?
They and their Chinese, Korean neighbours will have to go. That goes for East Europeans as well.
All those girls and boys between sick and a hundred and ten on hold. We are mad. How could this insanity lead to anything other than butchery and war?
Japan has only taken in 3 muslims this year?! Gee I want to move there! I used to live there 1964 to 1967 when my dad was in the Air Force! You had me at “no muslims allowed”! Dude I’m there!
So I looked up to see how many Arab/Muslime countries donate to the UNHCR.
The Arab countries give v v little
http://www.unhcr.org/5954c4257.html
They dont even feature in the top lot of donors
Trump can learn from Japan. World’s third largest economy, so why do they need illiterate third worlders? My brother was deployed to Japan just last week. Glad to know he’s in a country whose leaders have a sense and commitment to their own’s well being!! Still, would have enjoyed spending the holidays together.?
US OUT OF U.N. U.N.OUT OF US!!! UN has outlived its usefulness and become nothing but a mechanism to promote communism, Marxism and islam. It needs to either die a natural death or be starved out.
Emma, that’s a great assignment. He’ll enjoy his time in Japan.
Obviously more sensible government tha UK.
