It's fantastic to have the opportunity to work abroad, and do all that, but there is a certain point where you're just like, 'Oh, I'd love to work at home.'
Employers love cheap labor, but a country should train its own people.
For us, overseas employment addresses two major problems: unemployment and the balance of payments position.
Basically, people in other countries don't want to have to work quite as flat-out as they do in Japan.
You get an opportunity to do something for your country, you better get out and do it.

Hiring foreigners is more expensive and more difficult than hiring locals, because of the visa fees and long lead times for visa processing. And companies face a backlash by anti-immigrant groups for hiring foreigners. So they do it only because they have to.
I find it very beautiful to work in different countries because I see the mentality differences there. It is so rich, one always carries forward something.
You can't keep bringing people in from other countries, finding them jobs when Americans need jobs first.
