At the root of everything in Japan EVERYTHING is senoirity. In every cultural and business endeavor I have ever had in Japan the younger people defer to the older people. The old perople have the power, the young people wait to grow old.

The problem is that the older people are mostly mediocrities and time servers who got where they did by doing nothing much and never rocking the boat. Thre is not a lot of vision in the generation that came of age from 1945-1954 period. These people are, generally, scared to death. They worked hard for what they've got an they aren't going to do anything to jeapordize this. They re not going to do literally anything.

Time and again I have heard Japanese say,"When I reach their age I am not going to go down this old, tired road. "
