Why don't they just emigrate? Work culture seems to be better just about everywhere and on top of that, salaries in Japan are shit, and anyone with half the Japanese work ethics will be a dream employee in U.S. or let alone Europe which is full of entitled, lazy slackers.

This is why you see plenty of Japanese (and Korean) expats across China and ASEAN. A mid-level Japanese employee can become a senior manager in Thailand or Vietnam while earning a similar salary to Japan ($20-40k).
