[11:22] ah, it depend on speed of cource, 100M-12M i think, [11:22] ok [11:22] let's hope from next year, I will come there, [11:22] another question, how do I obtain Japanese Nationality? [11:23] note that, it is download speed [11:23] yes [11:23] and how much do I invest to get that? [11:25] there are 6 criteria, acording to wikipedia. [11:25] 1. stay in japan for more than 5 years.

[11:28] 4. possible to earn one's living [11:30] 5. you don't have nationality or it is possible to loss of nationality by getting japanese one. [11:31] asakura: oh, ok, but you must have a nationality before entering, [11:31] are they ppls who don't have a nationality?

[11:32] oh, no, I am me,i don't have anything to do with the government, except, taxes I can pay and other thing i can do to help the community [11:32] otherwise, apart from that, I am quite safe. [11:33] i do earn a living myself, don't depend on anyone except my business [11:33] yeah, usually to enter japan, you must have nationality. [11:35] i mean in No.5, japanese government doesn't accept Multiple citizenship [11:35] ah, ok [11:35] so meaning I have to renounce my formal nationality, right? [11:36] right. [11:37] and there is another way to get japanese nationality. [11:37] yes... [11:38] (marry a Japanese woman ) ? [11:38] marry with japanese [11:38] yea, I thing it's in my mind to marry a japanese woman, unless I come to japan to date them, I believe they are not that hard? [11:39] african ladies at times can give yo headache, even hart attack [11:39] I just want a sould a calm atmosphere, [11:40] *sound and calm [11:41] ok, another issue, how are government tax and business registration like in Tokyo? [11:44] just stay in tokyo, you have to pay residential tax. it depend on your income. [11:45] ok [11:46] about getting job, i don't know much. but it is better to get job before comming japan. because It's very difficult to get a job in these days. [11:48] well, I am a freelance web developper, so I can work anywhere i find myself in [11:49] but maybe I can set up a business like english teaching, or something similar, [11:49] if you have some special technique, it maybe easy to get job, [11:50] ok [11:50] if your mother tongue is english, it is possible i think. [11:50] I will prepare some funds to come there, [11:51] I can speak english and french [11:52] speaking or understanding is not so much important. [11:52] ok [11:53] *ability of speaking or understanding [11:53] I am born in TOgo, where official Language is French, i was raised up and later moved to Ghana, where Englsh is the official language, I had my professional education there, and I am there for the past 11 years now [11:54] important ability to get english teacher job is japanese ability of speaking and understanding. [11:57] ok [11:57] i have never met TOgo or Ghana people who is english teacher [11:57] oh, ok [12:02] j.15 was really good, I loved it [12:02] let me start with 1.7 and see how it is like [12:02] but what happened to 1.6, ?
