 Sorry for the hasty press conference, but we had to do it.
 On January 12, an emergency press conference held by volunteer lawyers to oppose the proposed amendment to the Immigration Control and Refugee Recognition Act began with this heartbreaking &#8220;apology. Although the press conference was hastily set up, it was attended by a large number of media.
 In May 2021, the government&#8217;s proposal to &#8220;revise&#8221; the Immigration Control Act was effectively &#8220;scrapped&#8221; due to growing opposition from the public. However, a proposal almost identical to the &#8220;scrapped&#8221; bill is said to be submitted to the next ordinary session of the Diet.

 The &#8220;proposal&#8221; will be submitted in the next ordinary session of the Diet. 2021 The case of the death of Wishma, a Sri Lankan woman who was detained at an immigration facility in Nagoya in March of 2008, is now proceeding to trial. Some reports of abuse in the facility have aroused great anger among the public. The United Nations has often expressed its concern about Japan&#8217;s immigration system, saying that it violates international human rights law and is inappropriate,&#8221; said Chie Komai.
 The problems with the proposed amendment were strongly pointed out at the time of its &#8220;abolition&#8221; in 2021. Criticism from home and abroad, as well as the shocking death of Mr. Wishma, led many citizens to gather in front of the Diet every day to voice their opinions. Two years have passed since that great uproar.
 The government is licking its chops by proposing a bill with the same content as the one that was scrapped. They think that the people will forget about it after some time,&#8221; said attorney Shoichi Ibusuki.
 In the background are the &#8220;golden three years&#8221; of the Fumio Kishida administration. The Kishida administration, which survived last year&#8217;s national election, has never been questioned by the public on its merits = by-elections, no matter how low its approval rating may fall. Neither the &#8220;defense tax hike&#8221; nor the &#8220;extraordinary measures to reduce the birthrate,&#8221; both of which were announced after the Diet adjourned at the end of last year, have had the opportunity to be directly questioned on their merits.
<h2> This country&#8217;s disregard for human rights is not a matter for others.</h2>
 This is a serious challenge to international human rights law. How will you explain this to the international community? 2021 The voices of citizens in 2021 have been betrayed. I am beyond disappointed and feel a sense of despair.
 Some say, &#8220;The issue of the Immigration Control and Refugee Recognition Act has nothing to do with Japanese people. But&#8230;
 This is what is happening in our own society.
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
 The government&#8217;s disregard for human life will soon be directed at us. The government&#8217;s disregard for human life will one day be directed at us, the people, who will &#8220;forget about it in time. However, even within the ruling party, there is now criticism of the &#8220;smug&#8221; attitude of the government. Prime Minister Kishida should now face up to the reasons for the dissonance within his party and the sharp decline in support for his Cabinet.

 On January 12, an emergency press conference was held by a group of volunteer lawyers to oppose the proposed amendment to the Immigration Control and Refugee Recognition Act. It was a hastily arranged press conference.

Kishida&#8217;s &#8220;golden three years&#8221; of &#8220;smug&#8221; administration is now in danger zone&#8230;Fear of defense tax hike and revision of immigration control law with disregard for the people&#8230;

Kishida’s “golden three years” of “smug” administration is now in danger zone…Fear of defense tax hike and revision of immigration control law with disregard for the people…
