SUMMARY:Run Ri (潤日): China's New Emigrants to Japan and the Anti-Foreigner
  Backlash
LOCATION:School of Global Policy and Strategy Robinson Building 3\, Room 3
 202\, 9815 International Lane
DESCRIPTION:Japan is undergoing a little-noticed demographic shift: a grow
 ing influx of Chinese entrepreneurs\, intellectuals and education-focused
  families relocating for stability. Drawing on years of reporting from To
 kyo\, GPS alumnus and journalist Takehiro Masutomo examines the rise of t
 his "Run Ri" movement and what it means for a country long defined by its
  relative homogeneity.\n\nFrom surging property purchases and competition
  for elite schools to Chinese-language bookstores and exiled intellectual
 s\, Tokyo is emerging as a new hub for the Chinese diaspora – leading som
 e to call it the “next Hong Kong.” But this growing presence has also fue
 led unease and anti-foreigner rhetoric. Masutomo's reporting brought this
  overlooked population into public view and helped to ignite a national d
 ebate in Japan that has contributed to tighter visa policies. He explores
  the tension between economic necessity and cultural anxiety shaping Japa
 n's immigration debate.\n\nSpeaker:\nTakehiro Masutomo\, Author and Indep
 endent Journalist\; Yale World Fellow\n\nModerator:\nMargaret Roberts\, D
 irector\, 21st Century China Center: Co-director\, China Data Lab\, UC Sa
 n Diego School of Global Policy and Strategy\; Professor\, UC San Diego D
