The Japan language has been perceived as a pride among the citizen of Japan and been widely used across Japan widely. You can see it everywhere you go, on the advertisement board, a billboard along the way, signboards, even in the technological devices, which has built-in Japan language as the primary language. It is seen that there is no shame for using national language. Perhaps, they believe the language is another way of keeping up with their identity and cultures.
A Quiet Place
According to the video published by Ulasan Apek Cina, they lower their voices, resulting in the environment across the shops, malls, city to be a lull, and quiet. I personally believe that this has got to do with their culture where they prefer to be quiet, talking when necessary, and above all, they prefer not to mind others' business but to focus with theirs, most of the times.
They Read A Lot
 |
| I love this one. It seems like the culture of reading has been strongly embedded and inculcated among the Japanese. According to the video, while waiting for their trains, buses, or anything, it is a very rare sight to see them without reading. They use that leisure time to read, discover knowledge by reading. Even if you see them with smartphones, most of them are actually scrolling down their electronic books, online books and news. I really think that we have to promote this culture to Malaysia; a reading society. |
Clean Society
 |
| Japan is well-known for its technology and cultures. In addition to that, they are also known as a clean society. To present, Japan remains to be one of the cleanest places to live in. One of the rules that the children at school are being exposed in Japan is to take responsibility for their own mess and not expecting others to take care of their mess. As a result, we can see that most of their cities are very clean and comfortable; particularly their washrooms and toilets! Rumour has it that some of their toilets are equipped with books! On the other hand, there is the smoking area where the smokers can light up their cigarettes. They can smoke as many and as long as they want for as long as it is in the Smoking area; or else, prepare for the legal actions against them. As a result, the public will not be harmed by the cigarettes smoke, eventually increase their health, and performances. |
Queue Society
 |
| They queue everywhere while waiting for their turn to onboard trains, flights, paying bills. They are very good at standing in lines! The concept to be in line begins since kindergarten. They see it as self-discipline, cooperation with others and respect. Discipline and consistency are strongly embedded within their souls |
.
I personally believe that we should promote these values into our educational system at the early stage of kindergarten to prepare a better-cultured version future generation of Malaysia. SHARE this. Let's contribute to the betterment of our society.
