Stabbing in Japan

A day ago there was a stabbing in Japan in Hiroshima. Usually, crimes in Japan are committed among family member or coworkers. However, in the recent years there have been crimes which have been committed for the act of committing a crime. Such as the infamous Akihabara stabbing incident a couple of years ago.

A similar event happened a couple of days ago. In Hiroshima a Chinese exchange student went crazy and attacked a group of people at his workplace. Six people were injured while two died. Although this looks bad on Japan China relations. It also has a lot to do with how foreigners are treated in Japan. I feel that this is an important thing to look into if Japan plans to keep up with other neighbouring  countries. Currently,  Japan has declining birthrate and in order to keep up, Japanese companies will have to employ more foreigner workers in the next couple of decades.
