Self-murderers continue to increase in number in Japan among primary, middle and high school students.
The number, which remained at the line of 100 to 300 for many years, has jumped from 2020.
In particular, 513 students committed suicide last year, which is reportedly the same level as that of 2022, a record high in the past.
From January to June this year, the number of suicides of primary, middle and high school students was 229, exceeding that in the same period of last year when many suicides were recorded.
Reportedly, suicide ranks first among ten causes of death in Japan and the rate of suicide in the country is the highest in the world.
Their suicides are motivated by maltreatment at schools, exorbitant school expenses, hard living, anxiety about their future, family feud and others.
Schools in Japan do not care about the prevention of violence and maltreatment and the protection of children, but rather neglect or encourage them and inflict mental and physical pains upon students.
A few years ago, a middle school girl in Hyogo Prefecture complained about her situation to the school and filed a document asking for help to escape from torture she had suffered at the extracurricular group and others. But the school authorities put the document into the paper shredder and continued to connive at the school violence. Eventually, the schoolgirl was compelled to commit suicide.
In 2018, a high school student in Nara City threw himself under a tram car after inputting into his mobile phone a message like a suicide note explaining about his predicament in study, while a high school girl in Kumamoto Prefecture left a suicide note, saying she was really painful and did not want to live any longer.
A suicide note left by a 12-year-old primary school girl as she killed herself was found in Tokyo in September 2021. She wrote in the note that she had been “ill-treated” and she was “not a plaything”, complaining she had been cursed and cruelly treated at school.
In February this year, a middle school girl in Nagasaki Prefecture committed suicide, leaving a note condemning the maltreatment committed in the school.
The Japanese authorities have allegedly taken “countermeasures against suicide” every year, but it is becoming more rampant with each passing day.
Young people, who would shape the future of their country, give up all hope and opt for suicide without hesitation, which foretells what the future of Japan will be.
Japan, with such incurable disease as suicide, is a human rights desert with no future.
