Japan has established exclusive schools in China, where Chinese are not allowed to enter, and not only the students are Japanese, the teachers and staff here are all Japanese nationals, and even the simple school security guards are sent by the Japanese side.
In the face of this situation, many people have spread the theory that Japan wants to carry out a plan to change countries.
After all, the problem of the contradiction between the Japanese and the land has always existed, its land area is too small to meet the needs of population development, coupled with the changes in the continental shelf, there is a risk that Japan's land will be silent, and their country has been looking for new overseas territories for itself.
Japanese schools in China today seem to be at risk, but is it really the same as we think?
Let's take a look at this so-called all-Japanese school, the first Japanese school was located in Shanghai, China, 38 years ago, and it was not a large school at first, but only seven Japanese students came here.
At that time, the state was more like an attitude, and the school building at that time could be described as very "shabby", directly using a vacant house in the consulate.
With the passage of time, Japanese schools have been expanding every year, and the Japanese side has put a lot of effort into this, and many teachers and staff have been transferred from Japan in the hope of normalizing the schools here.
So in 96 years, under the unknowingly of the surrounding Shanghainese, it has expanded to 20,000 square meters, although it is a school established in a foreign country, but the facilities here can be said to be very complete, and many facilities can not even catch up with Japan.
At that time, the campus was already equipped with teaching buildings, dormitories, and even sports halls and parking lots, so the Japanese were not satisfied, and soon opened their own branch in Shanghai.
Since then, the current size of Japanese schools has been formed, one in Hongqiao and the other in Pudong, and if this trend continues, it is clear that the school will expand further.
And this phenomenon is not only in Shanghai, including Beijing, Guangzhou, Suzhou, Shenzhen, Dalian, Qingdao and other first- and second-tier cities in the country have their shadows, which has to be shocking.
If it's just the school for their Japanese children, then why are they so vigilant?
Not only are the exterior walls covered with various power grid interception facilities, but there are also cameras every dozen meters.
Coupled with the round-the-clock patrols of the school's security guards, it seems that the place has been built like an iron bucket, so it seems that there is some conspiracy on the part of Japan to do so.
Many people question why the local authorities turn a blind eye to this.
In fact, this is a lot of people's cognitive error, existence is reasonable, for the problem that everyone is worried about, the national security department must be more concerned about everyone, since the state does not explicitly prohibit it, it means that there is a law to follow in this matter.
In 1995, the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China actually issued a decree on schools for the children of foreign nationals, which stipulated that some foreign countries could run schools in China, and Japan was not the only country that was allowed here.
According to the relevant regulations of the state, foreign countries must independently undertake the tasks of investment and construction when they come to run schools in China, and the schools run in China must be fully monitored by the relevant Chinese departments.
This means that there is no risk that we are worried about, China has such a policy, just for friendly exchanges between countries, many foreigners come to the mainland for work reasons, but there is no good way to enroll.
When entering Chinese schools, some children are too young to communicate, and these people are also worried that their children will accept Chinese culture too early and dilute their own culture, so this decree was introduced.
In addition, there are also national considerations for the fact that Japanese schools in China do not allow Chinese children to enroll, and the education method of these Japanese schools is an all-Japanese model.
If we let our children study in such a school early, it is obvious that we will not be able to develop a sense of identity with the motherland, and over time there will be even more serious consequences.
China has always attached great importance to the education of the next generation, and children, as the future flowers of the motherland, are a white and flawless piece of paper, and we do not allow any foreign forces to smear on it here.
Therefore, we need to understand that not allowing Chinese children to enroll in school is also responsible for China's own future.
Of course, there are some other aspects of protection ideas, in today's society, in fact, there are still some colored glasses in the treatment of Japanese, so I am afraid that Chinese entering the school will have some bad conflicts with Japanese staff and even students.
In fact, this way of building a school abroad is not just about other countries coming to us to build a school.
We also go to other countries to build schools, relatively speaking, we have to do a lot more open, such as Confucius Institutes all over the world, where we transmit Chinese culture in schools, but we don't resist the entry of people from abroad.
This is the great inclusiveness of Chinese culture, and we hope for an international pattern of harmonious development, and naturally we should be much more open.
As for the Japanese side, in fact, we have also established, the earliest school can be traced back to the Sun Yat-sen period, according to today's 92 years of history, here we also recruit Japanese children, in the playground of the big character posters are clearly visible.
Filial piety to parents and respect for teachers have passed on China's long-standing culture to this land.
There are also concerns that these schools are an integrated model from primary school to junior high school and then to high school, and whether these children will enter Chinese universities after graduation and whether it will affect China's employment rate.
In fact, there is no need to worry about this at all, for foreign exchange students, China naturally has its own selection system, and many Japanese children cannot actually enter Chinese universities after graduation, and at this time they are often admitted to domestic universities in Japan.
Only a small percentage of them go to Chinese universities, and we are naturally welcome to the foreign students we meet at the university, and we are naturally welcome for the part of them who want to have friendly exchanges with each other.
But if some people have other purposes, then they will naturally be under the supervision of the relevant state departments, which is actually much more than we imagined in the country, and we don't need to worry about it at all.
If many things exist for a long time, then they have their legitimacy, this is true of Japanese schools, and the same is true of other things, if there is really a problem, how can it be possible for so many such independent regions to appear in China?
