I always thought Japanese food was unhealthy because they eat so much food from packets/processed food ?! Great video and Thanks 🙏
Conditions can be very bad in America too. I worked in a clothing store and we would have to buy things to meet sales goals only to see higher goals set. Capitalism is evil. Maybe it was the U.S. that enslaved Japan under its constitution written by the military.
Firstly, congratulations that you have got a new job / career and left the job that you probably dreaded for the many years! No regrets on any decision made as you are not the ordinary Japanese salaryman whom believes there are no alternatives in life. You are well traveled with international exposures, thus it is right to follow your heart. I have Japanese friends whom are healthy & still working into their 70s. Thus, many years for your contribution! Ganbatte yo! Also do not feel too despair as Japan is in it’s natural cycle for economic prosperity & decline, just look at worst situation in US, UK, EU & even in Malaysia. Must admit that the world is currently going through much turmoil of which we can’t do anything. Most importantly is the well being of our family & be-able to live a descent happy life (anyone is rich is their own ways). Also don’t forget that you are not alone & many people like us are experiencing the same feelings through the journey of life. You have lots of tomodachi waiting for your UA-cam broadcast and checking onto your well being! Isn’t this is amazing part of human even though most of these people are from different countries & background? Yeah, Hakkoido is such a beautiful, natural & peaceful place to stay. Thus, don’t rule out the possibility of moving back there for your retirement. Otsukarasama desu for such a lengthy & meaningful UA-cam posting! Arigato gozaimasu.
i just surf the internet and found your channel,love your video,😀,you are better than me,i am almost 54 and i still dont know how to use twitter, i hope you are doing well, gam ba teh, and arigatohgozaimasta👍
Thank you. You are never old to learn something. The same to you! Best of good luck!
@@LostinHokkaido ありがとう、あなたの英語はとても上手です👍
Welcome back! Hope you are healty and doing well 😊
Welcome back Kecos san. It's been a while. Congrats on your new job and new life in Ebina. It must have been a lot to take in but all of them are going to add interesting chapters in yours and your family's life. Even in your 50s nothing is ever dull with a little bit of change. I also think moving closer to Tokyo is better for your son's future since there will be a lot of options for him when he choose to continue his studies or doing other things he wished. Plus health care are better in the cities than rural areas. Even with all the pros cities can provide I still like Hokkaido because it has similar vibe to my hometown (well not exactly but you get what I mean) like Sabah is to Peninsular Malaysia. Btw I'm curious does the seafood in Ebina as good as it was in Hokkaido?
Thank you for your very kind message. I don't know if I will be able to continue working with my young and talented colleagues, but I will just have to do my best. Food is cheaper and tastier in Hokkaido. Yes, my heart may still be in Hokkaido for the time being. I lived in the Tokyo area only during my university years. But after 30 years, I started living here again and was surprised to find that the summers are horribly hot.
Welcome back Kecos san, so great to hear and see from you again. Thank you for your wonderful video and sharing the news in your life. On one hand it's a pitty that you had to leave beautiful Hokkaido, on the other hand I can understand your feelings well. It is similar in Germany, we are ruled by some green zealots which have no common sense at all and drag this nations industry and commerce down. Furthermore our government is following not our nations interests, but tries everything to please the US. And our public media is a complete failure, which doesn't do their job, but rather backs them and continues to spread propaganda. Not a nice time to live here at the moment. But wherever there are bad sides, there are also silver lines of hope. People are not believing into mass media anymore, especially younger people inform themselves independently by multiple sources from the internet. And the public opinion of this goverment is as low as it can get, which is a phenomenon that can be seen in several european countries. People don't want to be told how to live their lifes, they want a freedom of choice. Talking about it, if you haven't felt happy back with your job in Hokkaido, you did the right choice yourself. We never know what the future will bring, but we can only influence our future if we are willing to take choices. :) Oh and by the way, I also made the right choice by importing an japanese market vehicle to Germany. I got me a Honda Freed Hybrid (first generation) and wow, do I love this car by now. Besides being my favorite ride, it's also one authentic part of Japan that I can enjoy every day being over 9000km away from the original^^ Wishing you and your family all the best, keep healthy and a good start in Ebina ^_^/
Dear my first subscriber, you are always the VIP of this channel. I am glad to hear that your Japanese car import business is doing well. I am very happy to hear that the declining Japan has finally been overtaken in GDP by Germany with 2/3 of the population. So I am sure that Japan's economic downturn is more serious than yours. I don't get my information from general TV now either, even UA-cam has some fakes, but still, I don't think the propaganda is too bad. If I continue with this channel, in the future it will be a little less about Hokkaido and more about Tokyo and Kanagawa from the point of view of a Hokkaido person. If you would like to take a look again, I would be happy to do so.
Dear Kecos, You are very welcome. Just to prevent a misunderstanding, I don't do Japanese cars as business, but as hobby. And now I'm so glad I can finally drive my dream car ^^ As for Japan, I can understand on how you feel right now. I hope that there will be a change of mind and that younger generations might take the lead into a more family friendly environment. It seems a giant task and only a far dream, but in the past Japan and it's population surprised the world several times. For example when the nation went from medieval into industrial age within a generation after Meiji restoration, or when large earthquakes struck vital areas in Kobe or Tokai - each time Japan returned stronger and reawakened like cherry blossom trees after winter. I'll be definitely looking forward to see more of your videos. I haven't seen much of Kanagawa prefecture myself. Mostly I've been to Yokohama. But just as I've learned from your channel and from fellow Japanese camping tubers, it's the people and the nature that we regularly don't see, which have so much to offer 😊 Thank you very much in advance for all your work.
Feels great to see you again Kecos san. Welcome back!🎉 Thank you for sharing a glimpse of your life story. May this be or you'll find the best way of life for you and your family.🤲 Love how people from all ages in this video are all in shape and able to walk fast. Unlike me who is only at late 30's, overweight and need to catch a breath in every 20 steps.😅
I am very happy to receive such a nice message. Actually, people in Tokyo and Kanagawa walk much faster than people in Hokkaido. The average age is younger and they are used to long commutes and train transfers, so they walk faster. I am also in my 50s, so I am always overtaken.
It's 1.05am (GMT +8) here in Sabah, Malaysia and I just suddenly wake up from my sleep......because of that, I can't go back to sleep until I got some notifications from your youtube channel so I currently watching right now.
Albertius84-san, sorry for uploading the video at midnight time. Once I get an idea, I want to immerse myself and finish it. Thanks for still remembering my channel.
Keep the videos coming Kecos san! I really would like to see more of Ebina.
suliwa670-san Thank you very much. My channel does not have a consistent video style, but please continue to watch the changes in my life.
pls upload new video
Thank you. Yes I did.
More accurately it should be Malaya. Malaya gain independence in 31 August 1957. While Malaysia is formed in 1963 comprising Singapore, North Borneo, and Sarawak. Malaysia never gained independence nor it ever occupied by foreign forces. There's a lot of misinformation regarding Malaysia both from locals and foreign people.
All these time I thought Uniqlo is Korean!
Terima kasih atas info yang diberi 👍👍
Hello Kecos san. Greetings from Ampang, Selangor. Nice to meet you. I just found your channel. Man, your English is better my Japanese, honestly. I can only manage to use Japanese in words only 😅 I really enjoy your videos, now watching your older ones. Looking forward to more videos from you. But more importantly, hope you and family are happy and healthy. Take care!
Why only now your channel pops up on my UA-cam? It’s one of the best channels I have come across. Your English is really good compared to most Japanese UA-camrs. I am your new subscriber from Malaysia
Just watched your video. Love it and had I LIKE it. It is so glad that you love Malaysia love "Asam Laksa", "Cendol" & "Bak Kut Teh". When it is something delicious "Just Eat" ha ha ha
Any high carborhydrate, high sugar and oily food unhealthy. In the long run you will become diabetic and can lead to high blood pressure, kidney failure and heart problem. Its true that YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT.
I strongly beleive that Malaysians eat less oily food and less sweet drink when the median ages get higher like the Japanese experience as of today.
I think Malaysians said our food is more unhealthy because we have a lot more overweight/obese people as compared to Japanese who generally more lean. So we blame the food, well it's one factor contributing but it's also combination of more things. The food and drinks are more sugary and sweet, we also have too many variety of food/snacks (it's because we are a diverse country with a lot of races and ethnicity) which make us always craving to snack on something all the time. Our portion is also quite big as compared to Japan, while the price is not too expensive so people don't feel guilty buying a lot more food. And personally I feel like people don't eat enough vege and fruits, there's just too much refined sugar, carbs and fat. The lifestyle is also contributing, in Malaysia you rarely see people walking long distance like 1km 2km 3km (except when they are really exercising), we prefer taking our own car/motorcycle even if the place is near. That is because Malaysia weather is unpredictable sometimes too hot, sometimes raining, so people don't like the hassle and become very sedentary as compared to Japan, Japanese walk everywhere all the time, small children or old folks will all walk, we don't see that normally in Malaysia.
Hi, Mardhiah-san. Thank you very much for your Thank you very much for your insightful comment. In my view, Japanese are likely to enjoy jogging rather than gaining muscle in terms of exercise. It might give us on impact in physique. Surely, I saw some Malaysians with obesity. But no worries. In the past, I stayed in Canada, I saw a lot lot more there, XD. One of the triggers for obesity in Malaysia is that Malaysian food is too yummy, isn't it? Due to hot and humid weather, it is even dangerous to jog in Malaysia. Instead, many condos in Malaysia have wonderful swimming pool and treadmill. It's really awesome!

Generally healthier than Msian food. The average Japanese live longer than the average Msian.
Hi, Pang-san. In the past, many people said, "Chinese cuisine is very oily and unhealthy." But now, the average life span of Hong Kong people is the longest in the world. Maybe Malaysians will follow the same way as the per capita income grows more.
@@LostinHokkaido I checked 85 years on average. Japan behind by a fraction. But the Oldest Japanese is above 120 years old. I still think diet of white meat and fibre is the way to healthy and long loving. Malaysians need to cut deep fried and coconut milk based food.
weh bak kut teh tu terang2 dri singapore XD
Him Eryne-san. I translate your comment through google translation XD.
@@LostinHokkaido He said the Bak Kut Teh packaging is clearly said from Singapore. 🤣 Which is true, but we also have it here in Malaysia. And in my city, there is a stall that sell Halal version of Bak Kut Teh, using cow meat and organs.
I think its about our version of the food, macam tomyam daripada thailand, tapi sebab kita dah biasa makan, so dia mcm kita 'punya' la haa gitu x tau mcm mana nak explain hehe Edit: he's a foreigner anyway, and malaysia ada chinese so, kalau org kata dimsum tu drpd malaysia aq pun percaya.
Very informative, comparative article👍
I can't thank you enough, bestbeast-san. I'm flattered!
@@LostinHokkaido most of your datas make sense.. I feel like reading a scholar paper..
@@bestbeast74 Terima Kasih! It's so encouraging me.
I saw many square cars on the street 😅
Hi, Angah-san. Yes, we 've been having more square (cubic) cars including mine these days, haha. One of the reasons is that people here are more likely to use car for car-dwelling (camping). Flat space within the care is very convenient for it!
Do autumn usually start around October? It feel like the seasons been push further back compared when I was small back in the 1980's. Back then, we were taught that the 4 seasons up north are Spring start in March, Summer in June, Autumn in September, and Winter in December. And regarding Malaysian food, I do agree that some of our food are indeed unhealthy. And I'm not taking about those instant food or processed food. I meant the traditional foods. One of the many reasons is that they use coconut milk, which we called Santan, in the cooking. That's why some dishes like curry or rendang look so oily because the coconut milk contain oil. Coconut oil to be precise.
Sense of autumn depends on in hich part of Japan you live. Enven here in Hokkaido, the eastern area have autmnal season earlier. I see. Coconut milk! It's definitely iconic ingredient of Malaysian meals. I didn't know it contains oil. I really miss it!!
@@LostinHokkaido Yup, long before palm oil popular as cooking oil, people in SEA(I think in South Asia as well) been using coconut oil as the main cooking oil since ancient time. And coconut oil is known to be high in saturated fat. BTW, while typing this I was thinking, what do Japanese use as cooking oil in the old days before modern cooking like what we have today easily available?
I always believe moderation in eating and balance in life for healthier and happy lifestyle... nice work for the statistics... keep the video coming
Hi, Antonine-san. Thank you as always for watiching with encouragement. Time, money and health, these three are essential for happy life style!
Nuclear Weapons were in developement during the end of WW2 by multiple nations, it were however the US who first used them in combat. Their destructive power as well as the terror they represented also lead scientists to give the technology to other nations as well, as they feared if only one nation has these weapons, they would dominate all others and use them without much concerns. That being said, have you checked how much the US is spending on weapons and arms development? I think it's more than Russia and China together, plus the US government asked european nations to up their military spendings as well, long before the current situation in Ukraine.
Hi, Kamuichan. Surely, the appearance of nuclear weapon has transformed the definition of war itself. And it made us more difficult regarding how each country should play a role keep the world peace. Japan doen't have the nuclear one, but we can't simply criticize the US policy because we are under the umbllera of nuclear by the US, and it surely keeps us from the threat by N.Korea, China, and Russia.
@@LostinHokkaido Hi Kecos. Japan and Germany are in a similar situation. Official it's stated, that the US as our partner would defend us against other nations. However, I disagreee with official political terms and rather see the US presence as an act of occupation. This is because of two things. 1.) On an international scale, and with all the experience gained within the last 70 years, established nations will profit more from trading with each other, than fighting each other. For example China has invested a lot of money into Taiwan, and vice versa. While politicians like to talk big, the business sector has no interest at all into an military conflict, as both China and Taiwan would destroy their own investments and customer base. It's similar between Germany and Russia. Germany used to buy affordable energy from Russia, whereas Russia bought machinery and Infrastructure from Germany. I guess it might be similar between Japan and China, where China is an important provider of resources as well as a giant sales market, whereas Japan offers technical know how & machinery to China. The only one who would have an interest in military conflicts between nations, are not the nations involved^^ 2.) The amount of protection that the US provide can but put into question, with most recent events. The most popular example is Afghanistan where US forces made an hasty retreat. We also have to think, why would the US risk losing lives, when it's not their own country that they defend? Because of this, i think it would be in the best interest of nations, to have every country care for it's own defense and to respect other nations on a mutual eye to eye level. By that, we can't be dragged into conflicts that we don't want (currently happening in Europe) and political leaders would have to make use of common sense and diplomacy instread of weapons :)
Developing nuclear weapons is like an invitation to make more enemy. It's better to have more friends than enemies. Plus Malaysia is such a small country with small population compared to its neighbor id, losing a densely populated area and the people due to nuclear war will be devastating not to mention the harm it could cause to the environment (acid rains and radiations are no joke). I don't wanna see/read another nuclear war like Hirosh*ma and Nagasak* just reading it makes my skin crawl in fear of the aftermath. Lets just keep our peace, after all war is a losing game where everybody suffers! I see you put a lot of effort on research and editing for this video Kecos-san, thank you as always!
Wow! Sui-san, long time no talk and I'm delighted to read your encouragement! Yeah, nuclear weapon is really inhumane. let's pray for peace!!
Nah , in the foundation of our country we have never invaded anyone, heck even our old malay empires like langkasuka , kedah tua , melaka and even johor has never invaded anyone, we just prefer trading with people and the only fighting we only do is for higher position of power for money so we can be rich and live peacefully. We malays have a saying , you dont bother us we don't bother you .
Hi, Ammar-san. I respect that Malaysian people are peaceful and have been demonstrating it through the history.
A detonated Russian nuclear bomb can kill and/or injure approx. 5 mil. people 😲 Imagine what Russia, N.Korea could do with 'active' nuclear warheads that they have now - scary. Definitely, nuclear war is not something that can be won.
Hi, Hui-san, thank you as always! I dealt with this scary topic because we are in imminent situation more than ever.
I disagree, we Malaysians are TOO MALAS (Lazy) to fight. Look at our politicians, all they ever fight about is on getting a LOT of KERUSI (chair) in the Parliament.
Hi, Hatta-san.Long time no talk and thans for the comment. Yeah, every government needs to be improved and partially corrupted somehow. The Japanese government also have a LOT to be reformed.
Malaysia never wish to be a Militarize nations, you may not notice we are surrounded by neighbor who scared on us for nothings. Everything's will take Malaysia as their benchmarks to press us, we are peaceful nations who entire population got their own religion believe, cultures and live in peaceful and harmony, list me any nation in this planet can tolerance like the Malays?. Compare to Singapore the local Malays treated as low class citizen you can't compare that even you want to do it a BIG taboo to uncover their shit under the blanket🤣. Our Military's budgets and GDP won't allowed us to be anything's that is the fact not to mentions we need to pay high salary to our stupid politician . We wish Yankee or Russian drop the nuke on us better not to exist .. ha ha ha
Malaysia is growing into high income country but in slow motion, simply because we love to learn and analyse from other countries first.
I also enjoy learning from Malaysia!
😂😂🤣🤣so creative the facts are presented Is also very accurate..Very fun to Watch..
Wow! Thank you very much for your encouragement. I'll do my best! Arigato!
I want japan, and you want malaysia.. i have a 6acre land here and i lived alone. Can we switch?
Haha, you can say that again. Please let me get in touch with you when I visit Malaysia next time, XD.
Wow i never knew my country is so highly regarded in japan! That's amazing!
I think in 2050 malaysia population will be double..which is around 60m people.
From what I gattehr, there seeems to have a certain range (three types) of estimation in population. 60m people also might be correct.
@@LostinHokkaido and i think mostly will be malays may be 90% because chinese malaysia same like japanese. which is do not want be pregnant or only want few kids either like 1 or 2.
Better economy always means slower population growth so I doubt that, but we'll see.. and if the country doesn't just break down but I guess that would be hard to happen but who knows? With the current income disparity, high cost of living on top of everything. We'll see how Malaysia solve these issues
If Malaysia reach Japan state of population which is 100 million people, we will be packed..
We have massive landbank in Sabah & Sarawak even the peninsula with more efficient of land can accomodate more citizens.
I supposed when you take GDP, it's PPP. At the moment, Japanese GDP is 6x larger than Malaysia but, Japan population is 4x larger than Malaysia. From GDP per capita basis, Japan is only 3x larger than Malaysia. So, yes, I think at this rate, it's almost 100% that the gap between Japan and Malaysia will narrow but I don't think Malaysia will overtake in the next 30 years at least. In simple math, assume Malaysia grows 5% p.a, their GDP PPP will be $2tn by 2035. For Japan, assume 1% growth p.a. since Japan also have a population decrease problem, by 2035, it will be max $8tn, down to 4x.
I appreciate your comment. O.K., you'll see it. In my view, Japan's decreasing population and increasing aging people worsen the situation to the level where it makes impossible even 0% growth. The more aging people, more non-workers, more pension needed, and more non-innovative policy selected.
Your content is great, but what I like very much is your adorable accent. Keep it up!
Haha, thank you for enjoying my Japanglish too XD. I'll do my best so you can understand my accent.
Yes you are right, it will take over Japan if Japan declining population rapidly. Malaysia likes to do things slowly, walk slowly, eat slowly, and ....
Japan was like a sprinter athlete.... because we've forgot to breath. But the history of countries should be going cencern. In other words, it should be longer running. You need to breath, eat and sleep.
Thank you sir... 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️
Thank you for your comment, my friend!
Mantap bossku! Very informative
Terima Kasih, sama sama.
Im wondering why did you rather make a comparison between Japan and Malaysia instead of between Japan-Indonesia? Indonesia is a huge resources and population country.
Hi, Indonesia is also a very promising country, isn't it? Malaysia is a country where I stayed over a year,. So literally it became "my second home", that's why. Another advantage of Malaysia is the people's high proficiency of English. It's awesome! XD
You can live in Japan and work remote jobs from Japan/overseas and earn Japanese Yen or dollar.. you gonna live in luxury here. Probably you can do that if you're specialized in IT or customer service.. I'm not sure
What do you plan to work as in your latter life if youre living in Malaysia?
I prefer to engege myself in marketing, consulting, analyzing, and any linking of both countries, lah!!
I like your Lah..Very Malaysian...😁
