To President Trump!
November 2, 2026 [Today's Proposal]With the arrival of the AI era, many people are focused on whether their jobs will be taken away. However, the truly important ques-tion is how AI can be utilized to create new industries and employment opportunities. I am not referring to selling AI-generated videos or software. Rather, I see potential in a model that uses AI as a strategic advisor for sales, logistics, and market analysis, while exporting products manufactured in special economic zones to global markets. Throughout this week, I would like to present, step by step, a new national strategy that connects AI, employment, exports, and the improvement of trade deficits. (Ya-suhiro Nagano)
1. [Correctly Understanding Employment Changes in the AI Era]
Generative AI is beginning to affect not only factory labor but also a wide range of white-collar professions, including administration, legal services, finance, and pro-gramming. The important issue is not the change itself, but how that change can be connected to growth. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
2. [AI Is Not a Threat; Its Application Is the Real Question]
Rather than viewing AI merely as a tool for reducing employment, it should be re-garded as an intellectual advisor that complements human capabilities. The outcome will vary greatly depending on the direction of policy and industry. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
3. [An Era in Which Retraining Determines National Competitiveness]
Rapid re-education and skill transformation are essential for adapting to the AI era. Acquiring new skills contributes not only to maintaining individual employment but also to enhancing the competitiveness of the nation as a whole. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
4. [Considering New Fields of Activity for White-Collar Workers]
An important issue is determining which fields white-collar workers affected by AI should move into. I believe there is significant potential in export-related industries such as international sales and market development. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
5. [Corporate Investment in Reskilling Will Determine Growth]
Corporate investment in AI education and retraining will become increasingly im-portant. Investment in human resources is the foundation that supports both corpo-rate value and national competitiveness. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
6. [Social Security Systems Must Also Adapt to a New Era]
To respond to changes in industrial structures, unemployment insurance systems and vocational support programs must also be reviewed. An environment that allows peo-ple to restart with confidence is a key source of economic vitality. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
7. [Building Systems That Support Diverse Work Styles]
Independent contractors and gig workers are also important contributors to the econ-omy. Safety nets for the AI era must be designed with greater flexibility than ever before. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
8. [How Can We Protect Development Opportunities for Younger Generations?]
AI-driven efficiency improvements may reduce opportunities for younger generations to gain practical experience. Establishing new systems for talent development will be a major challenge in the years ahead. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
9. [AI Literacy Will Become a Fundamental Skill for All Citizens]
The ability to use AI is not something reserved for a small group of specialists. It is important to build a societal foundation in which all citizens can understand and uti-lize AI. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
10. [The Integration of Education and Employment Policies Is Essential]
The era of treating education and employment as separate issues is coming to an end. In the AI era, designing them as a unified strategy will be the key to improving competitiveness. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
11. [AI Has the Potential to Strengthen Export Competitiveness]
AI can support companies in expanding internationally and make access to global markets easier. Over the next several days, I would like to explore these mechanisms in greater detail. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
12. [A New Concept: AI-Driven Export Strategy]
By utilizing AI as a strategic advisor for sales, logistics, and market analysis, it may be possible to create a new system for selling products globally. This represents a dif-ferent way of thinking from traditional export models. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
13. [New Professional Roles for Developing Global Markets]
New professions may emerge that use AI for international sales and market analysis. In a future proposal, I will also examine the concept of an “AI Trade Director.” (Ya-suhiro Nagano)
14. [Addressing Trade Deficits and Job Creation Simultaneously]
Trade deficits and employment issues have traditionally been discussed separately. Through the use of AI, there may be opportunities to improve both at the same time. This is one of the central themes of this series. (Yasuhiro Nagano)
15. [AI and Exports May Become the Key to Revitalizing the U.S. Economy]
The starting point of the concept introduced this week is a model that uses AI as a strategic advisor for sales, logistics, and market analysis while exporting products to global markets. If this approach can be realized, it may reveal a new growth strategy that links white-collar job creation with trade deficit reduction. (Yasuhiro Nagano)

1. Weekday Edition (Logical Contradictions in Immigration Law Violation Cases - Chapters 1-2)
Part 2: The Immigration Control Act Violation Case [Weekday Edition]
Japan’s judicial system and immigration administration involve severe human rights violations that challenge international standards. Through my own experience, I strongly question Japan's status as a constitutional state governed by the rule of law.
Please first read how I was wrongfully implicated in a case of "Aiding and Abetting the Violation of the Immigration Control Act" in 2010.

[Chapter 1] Case Overview
Autumn 2008: My company (where I serve as President) executed an employment contract with Chinese students holding student visas, promising to hire them upon their university graduation the following spring.
Late 2008: The Lehman Brothers bankruptcy triggered a global financial crisis, resulting in the abrupt cancellation of our upcoming system development projects.
2009: Due to the severe economic downturn, we were forced to rescind the job offers. Consequently, the graduated students had no choice but to continue working at the restaurants where they had been employed part-time during their studies.
May 2010: These former Chinese students were arrested for "Activities Other Than Those Permitted Under the Status of Residence" (Violation of Article 70 of the Immigration Control Act).
June 2010: I and our Chinese recruitment manager were also arrested. The charge brought against us was "Aiding and Abetting" (under the Penal Code) their unauthorized technical employment.
The Prosecution’s Logic: The prosecution asserted that our prior issuance of the employment contract constituted a "false document," which subsequently aided their unauthorized work.
[Chapter 2] Fatal Flaws in Judicial Interpretation
This indictment and subsequent judgment completely disregard fundamental legal principles, relying on an entirely arbitrary interpretation of the law.
Under Article 22-4, Paragraph 1, Item 4 of the Immigration Control Act at that time, submitting false documents merely granted the Minister of Justice the authority to revoke a residency status as an administrative disposition (leading to deportation). The act of submitting false documents itself was not codified as a criminal offense. Logically, one cannot be convicted of "aiding and abetting" an act that is not a crime in itself.
The court’s reasoning followed a convoluted chain of causality:
A residency status was obtained via a false employment contract.
The individuals resided in Japan based on that status.
Consequently, they engaged in unauthorized part-time work.
Therefore, the issuer of the initial contract aided and abetted the unauthorized work.
This is a far-fetched, flawed causal link that completely violates the principles of modern legal logic.
[My Argument]
Confusion of Administrative Dispositions and Criminal Penalties: The Immigration Control Act explicitly designates the consequences for false documentation as administrative measures (revocation of status and deportation). The legal process concludes there.
Absence of a Principal Offender: The actual employers of the restaurants where the students worked were never prosecuted for "Encouraging Illegal Employment" (Article 73-2 of the Immigration Control Act). Under the principle of equality under the law, it is a legal contradiction to punish us for aiding and abetting when the principal employers themselves were not prosecuted.
This same flawed legal doctrine was later improperly applied to diplomats and embassy staff.

Part 3: A New Business Model via Special Economic Zones
I propose the establishment of "Special Economic Zones" designed to accept refugees and migrants as "temporary migrant workers," with their residency restricted to these designated zones.
This framework offers a dual benefit: advanced nations secure low-cost labor to drive economic growth, while migrants receive human dignity, secure jobs, and free access to housing, food, healthcare, and education.
