Foreign entries into Japan surge 12-fold in 2022 on eased COVID steps

1. Hmm. I wonder why???

2. What a completely meaningless headline. 12-fold likely still means not much at all.

3. In other words… “More foreigners enter Japan after Japan stops preventing foreigners from entering.” Expert reporting from Kyodo, as usual.

4. Who the Hell writes headlines like this?!

5. No big deal. Once I doubled my age, but just once.

6. Customer received two meat patties instead of one after asking for a double meat burger, more news at 11.

7. 12x 10 isnt alot but 12x 10,000 is much worse. Actual numbers would make the headline more or less intriguing.

8. My workplace is located in Shibuya. Recently, I have been seeing more and more people of obviously non-Japanese ethnicity.
