Talk:Filipinos in Japan

Out of date article.
For obvious reasons, I would like to make a plea to people concerned with immigration aspects to edit the article as it shows a figure that is assumpted/made nine years ago. Thank you. Zxyggrhyn 10:45, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Clarify recovery
The following sentence in the article is pretty confusing: Their population reached as high as 245,518 in 1998, but fell to 144,871 individuals in 2000 before beginning to recover slightly when Japan cracked down on human trafficking. What's to "recover"? We're not talking about a healthy sized population, or a business in which we need to see steady rise in numbers. An immigrant population rises or declines, but "recovery" seems irrelevant. And if I understand "recover" = "rise in number", then how did a crackdown on human trafficking cause the number of Filipinos to rise? I would think the numbers would drop further. The article would benefit if the primary contributor or an interested & knowledgeable editor could clarify and correct the above sentence. Thanks and good luck.
