SUMMARY:[:en]Asian Talk 176 Chinese Immigration and Its Discontents[:]
DESCRIPTION:【New Event】\nAsian Talk 176\nChinese Immigration and Its Discontents\nan interview with Takehiro Masumoto\n  \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Rùn（潤/润）” is a term that has recently become popular in China. It refers to people who\, for various reasons\, choose to leave China in search of a better life. Originally\, the word meant “to profit\,” but since its pinyin spelling is “rùn\,” it has taken on a double meaning with the English word “run\,” implying escape. \nThe “Run Japan” community — still largely unnoticed by many Japanese — is rapidly gaining influence in response to changes in China\, Japan\, and the broader world. \nAs we engage with and listen closely to this entirely new group of Chinese immigrants\, we can strongly sense their uniqueness and complexity. At the same time\, it becomes evident that they are already having a significant and undeniable impact on Japan’s politics\, economy\, and society. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe welcomes journalist and author Yudai Masutomo\, will share the latest findings from his reporting on the trends and future outlook of China’s new wave of immigrants. \nLink:https://str.toyokeizai.net/books/9784492224243/ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n【Speaker Bio】\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \nTakehiro Masutomo/ Guest \nTakehiro Masutomo is a quadrilingual journalist and adjunct researcher at Waseda University.
