I never implied that Asians or Japanese are not capable of creativity. I merely stated that due to the cultural pressure to conform, and fear of loss of face, creativity is discouraged. However when placed in an American environment, these pressures recede, and the potential of their creativity is unleashed. Silicon Valley is teeming with Asian Engineers, and is the bubbling hot pot of creativity. I also noted earlier that the Japanese can be very creative in situatons where they have to take several small steps and do not have to stick out their necks. For the Japanese the pressure to conform begins in kindergarten, where getting along with others is stressed very highly. This creates a problem for Japanese expatriates executives . They find that their children after having being schooled in foreign schools for a few years, do not fit back with other Japanese children because they are now "different", more individualistic, and "do not get along with other children". The returning Japanese children are intially shunned because they are different, and it is a painful reentry crisis for little children.
