There must be Japanese offsprings in Macao, however more than 300 years ago... well, some of them might emigrate to Brasil as Japanese...
But had Portugese government been too cruel to accept the religious J refugees as citizens? Or have Japanese offsprings refused to assimilate to local communities there for such a long time?

After visiting my friends and talking to their parents and grandparents there, I'm pleased to say that I can share the Koizumi's feeling.
I'm sure that all Asian incl., Japanese can learn much from them for their diligence.

Interesting enough, there still remain some nikkei communities where people hold more J tradtions/values, but Liberdade in Sao Paulo, a well-known nikkei town with a shinto torii gate, is not the Japantown anymore.

It might be a good idea to browse what sort of person add the articles there. IP addresses doesn't tell everything, I know.

I'd really love to help the nihon matsuri in Sao Paulo soon again.

tchau, tchau.
