Hi guys, this is iYASASA RADIO by Akane and Minami.
In this radio, we are going to talk about random topics in Okinawan Japanese and English.
The Okinawa SDGs project, a platform for companies and organizations
that promote SDGs, will be held on the 5th at the 2nd conference in 2021.
It was held at the Ryukyu Shinpo Hall in Naha City, Okinawa Prefecture.
A discussion was held on the theme of thinking about removing poverty from the prefectural economy,
a message from the amount of salary.
Ryota Yoshinaga of the Marketing Strategy Promotion Division of the Ministry of Commerce,
Industry and Labor of Okinawa reports that Okinawa Prefecture's average monthly salary is 220,000 yen,
but it is already less than the relative poverty line of 230,000 yen.
He explained his goal to raise the average monthly salary per person within 3 years by 10,000 yen
in order to reduce the relative poverty rate.
Shinichi Hanamura, the director of Kanehide Research Institute, pointed out that a polite response is required for each industry.
Mr. Ichiro Maeda, the representative director of the prefecture's small and medium-sized entrepreneur,
and the president of Maeda Electric Works, reported on his efforts to share income and expenditure and goals with employees,
saying that employee happiness is the management philosophy and salary is one of them.
Atsuko Itokazu, a research fellow at the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science,
who studies child poverty and educational disparities, pointed out that the average value is pulled by high income.
Income of non-regular young people is lower.
We also emphasize the issue of the bidding system, which is evaluated as cheap in public works projects.
Mr. Ryota Yoshinaga, the director of the Okinawa Prefectural Ministry of Labor and Marketing Strategy Promotion Division,
said that the average monthly salary in Okinawa is 220,000 yen,
but the average monthly salary in Japan is 380,000 yen.
Mr. Ryota Yoshinaga, the director of the Okinawa Prefectural Ministry of Labor and Marketing Strategy Promotion Division,
said that the average monthly salary in Okinawa is 220,000 yen,
but it is already less than 230,000 yen of the relative poverty line.
In order to reduce the relative poverty rate,
the goal is to raise the average monthly salary of one person by 10,000 yen within three years.
Mr. Hanamure Shinichi, the chairman of the Kanehide General Research Board,
pointed out that careful response is required for each industry.
Mr. Ichiro Maeda, the president of the Maeda Electric Co., Ltd.,
said that the happiness of employees is the concept of management,
and the salary is one of them.
He reported on the initiative to share the year-end goals and goals with employees.
Mr. Atsuko Itokazu, a special researcher of the Japan Academy of Sciences,
said that the average value is pulled by high income,
and the benefits of young people of irregular age are lower.
He also emphasized the issue of the admission system,
which is evaluated to be low in public business.
That's all.
I didn't know the exact income perfecture, but I didn't know the exact price, income fee.
As a monthly wage?
Yeah.
But is SDGs including income things too?
Yeah.
It's like the sustainability of the economy.
Okay.
From this article, I didn't attend to this seminar or anything,
so it's not really a specific data, or I can't see what discussion they had.
So we cannot exactly say what is sounds right or wrong,
but it's like,
the monthly wage is relatively low,
so if it's higher than this line, it's not low,
and if it's lower, it's low.
So it's not like people who are listening to this right now
have a monthly salary of less than 220,000 yen,
so you are poor.
It's not like that,
but if you raise 10,000 yen in a year,
what's the exact plan?
It sounds like a politician's manifesto,
so I feel like, what are you going to do?
It's not in this article, but I'm curious about the content.
If there is such a strategy,
teach the strategy to hold the fucking world.
So why did you choose this topic today?
Okay, so,
I read some, a book,
I think some people already read or heard about this book called
沖縄から貧困がなくならない本当の理由
I read it like two years ago,
and I think this theme is for,
is really controversial for Okinawan people,
or the people come to Okinawa and having a job.
And I talked to some friends,
you know, my family,
like they have a different opinion about this,
and also this author of this book,
he is mainlander,
so I think he had a pretty subject,
object? Objective.
Objective.
It's always wrong.
Objective perspective.
For Okinawan people and their lives.
And I found a YouTube video from my favorite media, Vice,
and I watched this interview with Higuchi-san,
the author of this book,
and this theme is still controversial,
and I read in other media that
we can't pay our rent because of COVID-19,
and we can't pay our rent because of COVID-19,
and we can't pay our rent because of COVID-19,
and we can't pay our rent because of COVID-19,
I'm not sure if it's a year-long thing,
but we can't pay rent because we're unemployed.
Living in Okinawa is like we cannot
Living in Okinawa is like we cannot
Living in Okinawa is like we cannot
We cannot speak openly about poverty.
And not just poverty,
And not just poverty,
And not just poverty,
divorce rate, birth rate,
divorce rate, birth rate,
birth rate
Suicide rate is number one in Japan.
自殺率、重罪、重犯罪、DV、幼児虐待、いじめ、依存症、飲酒、不登校、教員のうつは全国でも他の地域を圧倒している。
っていうのが月曜から夜更かしでありました。
月曜から夜更かしでもされるぐらい全国のマーメイ文化。
じゃあ沖縄でこういうのがあるよっていうのを取り上げられたって。
マーメイしてたら粗売感を感じる的な?
And I've experienced it when I was in school.
Tell me about it.
Since I was in a private school, a Catholic school,
私立だから塾とか、
この他の学校の子が集まるところに行ったら、
アーメンするんでしょ、とか、
勉強ばっかりしてるんでしょ、とか。
でも休養高校の時も、
ゼロ工事から勉強してるんでしょ、みたいなの言われて、
マーメイみたいな。
So what did you feel when people said that to you?
なんか自分は屈辱って言われるか、
I was so proud being a マーメイ。
逆に誇らしく受け取ったポジティブだろう。
I'm so smart.
そうだよね、みんながそう受け止められたらいいんだけどね。
まあそれは、it depends on personだけど、
もっと若い時、小学校の時とかにめっちゃ言われたら、
みんなと違うんだって思ったかもしれない。
いいと思ってやってることを、
直接言葉にして伝わらなくてもニュアンスでさ、
子供の時とかってセンシティブだからわかるじゃん。
ヤンキーがかっこいいみたいな。
勉強できなくても、みたいなのあったんじゃん。
ジュニアハイスコアの時とか。
I was with more mermaid people than me だから、
その間の変なところにいたけど、なんか普通に、
でも今大人になったら、
We can choose people we hang out,
But like, as a teenager or younger generation,
We didn't have any choice
Until we go to high school.
高校でやっと同じ、
比較的同じ、
偏差値って言っていいのかな。
人たちが集まるから、そこでマーメイとかないと思うけど、
すごいヤンチャーな人たちが多い中学校にいてさ、
いきなり開放高校行きたいです、みたいになったらそれが起こるってことでしょ。
みんなに精神的に邪魔される。
親もサポーティブじゃなければ、
一人で頑張らないといけないってことなのかしら。
Probably.
マーメイ文化っていうか、
If there is somebody listening to this radio,
Then they are a student,
Really you shouldn't care about it.
