 To President Trump!




July 24, 2025 Japanese version

I think the Trump administration has "realized something obvious." Japanese companies are subject to tariffs if they "manufacture in Japan and export to the United States," but they are not subject to tariffs if they "manufacture in Mexico and export to the United States."


It's not just car exports from Japan to the United States that President Trump is angry about. The United States' "trade deficit" is expanding because Japan ex-ports through Mexico.


Mexico's automobile industry has been active since around 1980 as an automo-bile production base for the United States, where "many wealthy people live."


In 1994, NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) came into effect. More Japanese and American automobile companies entered the country, and the number of automobiles produced also increased.


When NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) came into effect, the United States must have realized that American automobile factories would re-locate to Mexico as they do today.


Why did foreign automobile manufacturers enter Mexico? There are three rea-sons. However, my conclusion is that if the US creates a "special zone in Mexi-co," it will be a substitute for Mexico.


Mexico is a "TPP member." Japan can export to the US "tariff-free" via Mexico. This is the problem that caused the "conflict" of NAFTA.


"PP member" can export to the US "tariff-free" via Mexico. This is the responsi-bility of the US, which created the USMCA (NAFTA). They "digged" their own "grave"! .


Trump should withdraw from the USMCA (NAFTA). What "Japan and China" fear is that the US will abandon the USMCA.


The Trump administration must be feeling the "limits" of the USMCA. The US should create "Mexico" within the US, not from Mexico.


The "special zone in Mexico" that I propose is like creating "Mexico" within the US. Mexico cannot be "bought," but a "special zone" can be built.


A "special zone" can be established anywhere in the US. However, illegal immi-grants enter the country through the "Mexican border." Illegal immigrants should be "captured" at the Mexican border immediately.


Illegal immigrants' wages are "lower than in Mexico." They are people who have no jobs even in Mexico. They will gladly work as "low-wage workers" and will certainly contribute to America.


Although "provisional immigrants" are "low-wage," "food, clothing, shelter, medical expenses, and education" are free. They can live a "more humane life" than illegal immigrants and low-income earners in America.


The ancestors of Americans came to America as "poor immigrants." And now their descendants are wealthy. "provisional immigrants" will work for "Ameri-ca," dreaming that their children will be able to live as wealthy Americans in the future.


President Trump said, "Immigrants who contribute to America are welcome." "Provisional immigrants" are the people who realize "MAGA." Please accept them in the "special zone." Please.

Part 2. "Immigration Control Act Violation Cases" "Weekday Edition".


"Everyone" in the "international community" please help!


First, please read about the "false accusation" of "aiding and abetting violation of immigration law" in 2010.


❤Click below to read the full article!

https://toworldmedia.blogspot.com/



"Chapter 1". The summary of the incident is as follows.


In the fall of 2008, my company (I am the president) promised to hire "Chinese people studying abroad on student visas". I "issued" them "employment contracts" stating that "LEFCO" would "employ" them when they graduated from university the following spring.


However, after that, the "Lehman Shock" occurred in 2008.


As a result, orders for "system development" from the following year onwards were "cancelled".


As a result, "LEFCO" "cancelled" the "employment" of "those who were scheduled to join the company" in 2009.


Therefore, "they" continued to work at the restaurants where they had worked part-time as students even after graduating in 2009.


In May 2010, the Chinese were arrested for "violating Article 70 of the Immigration Control Act" by "activities outside of the status of residence".


In June 2010, after their arrest, I and the Chinese person in charge of recruitment (KingGungaku) ​​were also arrested.


The reason was "crime of aiding and abetting" the Chinese for "violating Article 70 of the Immigration Control Act (activities outside the status of residence)".


<Reason for arrest> The prosecution said that I and KingGungaku giving the Chinese a "false employment contract" constituted "crime of aiding and abetting" under the Criminal Code.


"Chapter 2". Crimes in the judgment: (arbitrary and ridiculous)


The charges in the indictment are "the very provisions" of "Article 22-4-4 of the Immigration Control Act".


If a "status of residence" is obtained by submitting false documents, the Minister of Justice can revoke the "status of residence" at his "discretion". (And the person will be deported).


Therefore, even if a Chinese person submits "false documents," it is not a crime. It is not a crime to "aid" an innocent act.


The "reason for punishment" in the judgment:


1. The Chinese person obtained "resident status" by submitting a "false employment contract."


2. And they violated the Immigration Control Act (activities outside of their status of residence).


3. The Chinese person obtained "resident status" because "we" provided the Chinese person with a "false employment contract."


4. The Chinese person was able to "reside" in Japan because he obtained "resident status."


5. Because of that, the Chinese person was able to "work illegally."


6. Therefore, "we" who "provided" the Chinese person with a "false employment contract" were punished for "aiding" the Chinese person's "activities outside of their status of residence."


This is an "error" in the arbitrary "logic of law."


This reasoning is the "argument" that "when the wind blows, the barrel maker (profits)." This goes against "legal logic" even internationally.


The "criminal reason" in the indictment cannot be a crime because the provisions of the "Immigration Control Act," which is a "special law," take precedence over the "Criminal Code," which is a "general law."


My argument:


"1": The Immigration Control Act stipulates that the Minister of Justice will revoke the act of a foreigner who has obtained a residence status by submitting false documents (Immigration Control Act: Article 22-4-4, cancellation of residence status) through "administrative disposition." That's all.


"2": The Chinese who engaged in "unqualified work activities" are not guilty. The reason is that their "employers" have not been punished for the "crime of aiding and abetting illegal employment" under Article 73-2 of the Immigration Control Act.


Therefore, under the principle of "equality under the law," the Chinese are not guilty.


The Japanese government has punished "diplomats and Philippine embassy staff" for the exact same "criminal reason."


However, like the Chinese government, the Philippine government is also silent.


The rest will be published in the Saturday edition.


Part 3. Special Zone Construction. A new business model.


Special Zones accept refugees and immigrants as temporary immigrant workers and limit their residence to the special zone.


Developed countries use them as low-wage workers and achieve high economic growth again.


Refugees and immigrants can get jobs and live a hopeful, humane life.


Temporary immigrants are low-wage, but "food, clothing, shelter, medical expenses, and education are free."
