Why does Japan work so hard? | CNBC Explains

What's the point ....I don't understand why human kind don't understand the purpose of life is to living content life ....and not devoting your life to stupid economy monster !

karoshi:過労死(かろうし)

Japen work so hard? bro,you should go china.

I won't mind over working if i get pension

If you want to live one LIFE that we have then “don’t get born or work in Japan”

I think i would be fire on the first day in Japan. I cannot work more than 4-5 hours a day...and not everyday hahaha.

Better carry two things:
1) pain releaver ointment (?)
2) a huge bucket of grease!!

* notice both are slippery in nature.

Japan is a Capricorn

Life events and depression

Research suggests that continuing difficulties, such as long-term unemployment, living in an abusive or uncaring relationship, long-term isolation or loneliness or prolonged exposure to stress at work can increase the risk of depression.

Significant adverse life events, such as losing a job, going through a separation or divorce, or being diagnosed with a serious illness, may also trigger depression, particularly among people who are already at risk because of genetic, developmental or other personal factors.

go china, take a look what is “work so hard”😅

Cmon it's 2024 already. Who believes this 50yo stereotype that existed before the world wide web.

Sorry, I am Japanese but don’t work hard.

They are stupid to work so hard😂

Brainwashing. You don't have to be #1.

That's 💀

It’s because they don’t have enough population to produce the output that the economy needs. The aging population does this. If they don’t it will further decline there economy.?

This made me tired and depressed just watching it, let alone living it.

There's a more accurate term for "salary man", it's called wage cuck.

Real question; why not?

Japanese definitely are putting in more hours at work, reflected in productivity proportionally?

Hey guys
South Korea is even worse than Japan.
So the birth rate continues to set new records for the lowest in the world.

日本人の性格が蟻なんですよ。
日本の労働単価も、生産性も低いですよ。でも、それでもいいんです。
人の為に何かをすることが人生の重要な事の一つだと思うんです。

感谢你的视频，现在我知道为什么中国人那么累了！

Now I understand why Japan has a very low birth rate. Working 12 hours per say is incompatible with parenthood

Or Rpg

No 3d tps and fps

Does look this will affect your view of Japan? everyone loves Japan culture!! if you want to know what is exactly real Japan every one should move to for live couple years in local company not only study and travel.

The salary and wage man=modern slavery.

No wonder Japan is so rich.

I live in Japan.
I’ve been living here since September 2016 and yes, it’s true.
Work conditions are really though here and people don’t complain about it because they don’t know anything else.
For example if you get sick and you have to be off then you are forced to use your payed holiday or unpaid holiday.
It’s kind of your fault when you get sick.
That’s how they see it.

all the east Asians work so hard to catch up with west, they think more money means more happiness, but Chinese Japanese and koreans are the most unhappy and depressed people I ever met, their lives are miserable.

Do you want an economic miracle or not?. The miracle had its sources before the post war period though eating the rich helped.

Japan's future will be totally automated with only 12 breeder reaping the rewards. They seriously need to lower stress and encourage better work life balance.

Working longer ≠ Working more efficiently

Working hours in South Korea is worse than Japan

"Lowest productivity among all G7 countries."

Lol even in the post truth era where narrative trumps facts; pretending to be "hardworking" doesn't seem to work

Most of overworking problems in Japan usually happen with workers with mid-skills (unfortunately, most workers are mid-skilled...)

If one has low skill / no skill, one will become part timer, hence no overworking problems (but money problem...)

If one is highly-skilled workers, he has more flexibility in choosing his employer, hence no overworking problem

They grow fruits but no time to enjoy it. Disheartening.

私密马赛，红豆泥私密马赛😁

I appreciate my life away from work

Loyalty to their masters. Poor brainwashed slaves

KAROSHI it is a new way of slavery.....we work to live not live to work

Cos they don't want rely on third world sweatshops for cheap things?

Yeah, you can tell, a lot of them are really on the brink of a melt down , I’ve often wondered why they are so easy to control and manipulate, there’s something bred in to them or their culture.

It's crazy that Japanese are so into their business that they don't even noticing bro went down through staircase talking a presentation ⚡

こういうステレオタイプってQOLも所得も労働時間も何もかも日本に負けてるのが悔しくて作られたんかな？😂 かなり滑稽だな。

Robots don’t pay monthly taxes.
So ageing people needs to be replaced with new born babies.Otherwise I think financial sistem will collapse

The only way out of it is immigration. A path Japan will not take for the foreseeable future.
