The Japan-Brazil exchange year and the 100th anniversary of the emigration from Japan to Brazil
I exchanged the 500 yen coin to the commemorative coin of the 100th anniversary of the emigration from Japanese to Brazil today.
There is a commemorative ceremony in the capital of Brazil, Brasilia.
Before only 100 years, Japanese people were poor. It was the era of "Oshin”.
Some people at that time went to cultivate the primitive wilds of not only Brazil but also Manchuria and Hokkaido etc.
It was so severe work and they had to work to the limit of their physical strength.
Now many Nikkei Brazilians are in Japan to work.
It is why the Nikkei people are admitted the qualification of “The permanent resident” without the work limitation.
