...allow more foreign workers into the country to help offset the shrinking labor pool. DPJ lawmakers also want to improve the lives of younger Japanese workers by curbing the hiring of temporary workers by manufacturers, a widespread practice that over the last decade or so has relegated many youth to second-class-citizen status. While older workers hang on to the best jobs, younger workers stuck in temp positions are denied many company and government benefits. Chronic job insecurity makes it tough to start families - exacerbating the demographics problem. (see the new activism of Japan's youth...

By invading Iraq, the Bush Administration probably did a far more effective job than bin Laden of weakening U.S. influence in the Muslim world and rallying its youth to resistance.

...attacks have sparked wide-ranging discussions on racism and discrimination in Australia, a nation still raw from the 2005 Cronulla race riots where thousands of Anglo-Australians engaged in violent clashes with Australian youth of Middle Eastern appearance at a well-known beach in Sydney's south. The country is also grappling with an upsurge of ultra-nationalism among some younger Australians. The issue facing South Asian students is far larger than a few isolated - and possibly opportunistic - attacks, says Unni, the Sydney coordinator of the Federation of Indian Students of Australia.
