The document discusses Japan's declining and aging population and rising taxes. It presents population pyramid graphs showing Japan's shrinking younger population and growing older population from 2012 to 2050. The author considers retiring from Japan and obtaining a retirement visa to live in Southeast Asian countries like the Philippines, Thailand, and Malaysia. He notes the Philippines' constant population growth and chooses to live in Cebu, finding the people friendly to Japanese and the area safe with amenities.

8. What I Found From Slides Were
● Worsen Population Onus
● Our generation withstands an social system now but
becomes a burden for the young when we retire
● Our generation may share a position, a role, a salary
in a company in near future
No future in Japan.
Then I retire from Japan just now.

11. Conclusion
● No future in Japan
● High risks to live in the single country, to
work in the single company, and to repeat a
routine work
● Move if you stop in the same place
● Take a risk while you are young
Live Independently!
