What do you think of dual citizenship Kaz? Instead of dangling visas to 
those of Japanese descent, the government would find it a lot easier to 
encourage people to come to Japan if they simply issued Japanese 
passports to the diaspora in the first place. It works well for 
countries such as Ireland, no reason why it wouldn't for Japan.
