Suicide is only way out of destitution

According to the recent document published by the Japanese Ministry of Welfare and Labour, the number of suicides amounted to tens of thousands last year due to poor living conditions and family discord.

The Japanese people are in a miserable plight in which they are compelled to commit suicide as they are unable to fulfil their hope for the future and aspirations, being deprived of their vital rights.

Even children commit suicide in succession.

According to the Japanese Ministry of Welfare and Labour, the number of suicides among primary, middle and high school students was 527, recording an all-time high.

Extreme individualism “you or I” destroys normal human relations and only the jungle law works on Japanese society. Therefore, children who should be loved and protected are compelled to kill themselves.

A few years ago, a high school student in Saitama Prefecture, Japan, killed himself. The note he left behind read that he suffered terrible insults from his fellow students for a long period and so he opted for suicide, being unable to control his anger.

A month after the incident, two sixth-year girls of a primary school in Aichi Prefecture plunged to death as they could not endure the maltreatment by their teachers and classmates.

Not only adults but also children find their way out from miserable plight in suicide. Japan is a kingdom of suicide and a living hell.
