Survivor’s Pension

Hi, Jun Tomioka here.

 

The system of the survivor’s pension in Japan will be

revised from 2028.

 

There is an unfairness between men and women in the system

now.  Female survivors can get the pension in their all

lives but male survivors can’t get it.

 

From 2028, both of male and female survivors can get the

pension during five years after their partners died.

 

This revise is advantageous to men but disadvantageous to

women. The present system is made by the idea that women

are housemakers.

 

I think men and women should work and raise children

together and if a partner dies, the survivor should

keep the family not depending on the pension.

Foreigners

Hi, Jun Tomioka here.

 

I read an article about old people’s home in Germany.

A manager said, “Many workers from foreign countries

work here. If the regulations against foreigners become

strict, we can’t operate our home.”

 

The situation seems almost same in Japan.

A friend of mine said, “My father lives in an old people’s

home. Many foreigners work there. A staff member from Myanmar

is very smart and kind. My father likes her very much.”

 

The other day, a political party whose slogan was ‘Japanese

first’ became very popular in the Upper House election.

The idea seems to avoid foreigners in Japan.

 

However, workers in Japan are decreasing rapidly because of

a decline in population.

We should consider about the foreigner’s issue more seriously.

Air-Conditioner

Hi, Jun Tomioka here.

 

I got a call from a tenant of my mother’s building.

He is worried that an air-conditioner doesn’t work.

 

Hot days continue.

He can’t operate his bar without an air-conditioner.

 

I will help fix it.

Summer Cut

Hi, Jun Tomioka here.

 

We’ve been having a lot of hot days.

My dog looks tired because of the hot days.

He was covered with a lot of hair.

 

I took him to a trimming salon to have his hair cut.

His hair became very short.

 

He has changed his appearance.

The dog breed is cavalier but he now looks beagle.

Balcony

Hi, Jun Tomioka here.

 

Now, a balcony of mother’s house is being renovated.

 

The color of the fence was repainted.

The awning was put on the wall yesterday.

 

New tiles will be covered.

Some plants will be put on the floor.

 

I’m looking forward to seeing the new balcony.
