>>The Japanese retirement age is 60, last I heard. They tried to push it back to 65<< 60 in companies. 60 in government. But starting this year you wont be able to receive your state pension until 61, then going up next year to 62, one year at a time, until it reaches 65. They will start not enforcing obligatory retirement age for public employees when posts are deemed (or people) necessary. In other words, on a case by case basis, retirement will no longer be automatic. ys Stephan
