[Why I love Japan] 12. Telecommunication - I admire our folks...

In Japan the life is very very very monotonous such that we have a stereotypical life style day after day everyday all though the year.  It is getting bored to live in Japan.  

There is absolutely no everyday problems on the basic necessities such as Water, Electricity, Milk, Fruits, Meat, Fish and Vegetables, Tele-communications, Roads, Transport etc.

With out these problems we don't know how to spend our spare time and we are absolutely are forced to have a hobby of going out on week ends to enjoy the nature, photography, hiking/trekking, visiting friends.


Telephone connection, every house will have a telephone connection up to their wall (MDF, Main Distribution Frame).  Getting a telephone connection  from the telephones(NTT) is absolutely hassle free and the house owner does not need to make any steps to get the connection.  The builder is delegated/obligated to get water connection establish an account with the telephones.  If you are planning to rent the house, the tenant shall get the connection activated (in their name) by just filling a one page (A6 size) application and connection will be given in absolutely in matter of minutes.  It is absolutely no physical wiring change required even if you change the service provider.  Once you get the connection, it is absolutely guaranteed it will not have any problem for years together.  It wont cut during rainy days, it wont shut down for no reason.

By all the above one will miss the fun (if it were in India) of visiting telephones several times to get the connection and bribing them to give the connection much earlier, following up several times until you get the connection.  Even after getting the connection there may be several issues that occurs during everyday life, such as loose connection, dead connection, network slow, phone working but not net and vice versa?  

Its fun to handle all these problems especially in everyday life.

Milk, Fruits, Meat and Vegetables are almost available 24x7 in almost all super markets.  Neatly cleaned and wrapped and fresh.  No need to pick the vegetables and check for their quality.  Cauliflowers are absolutely free from insects/worms.  So as egg-plants.  No Okra (ladies finger) will be over matured.  All vegetables are guaranteed free from toxic contamination.  Fruits are guaranteed as well from the toxic contamination.  One can even cook the spinach by just taking out from the wrapper and cut the root part.  Its absolutely washed and does not have any traces mud.

Meat, Fish are also absolutely refrigerated and absolutely free from flies on them.  No smell in the shop.  Same shop will have meat, fish and fruits and vegetable sections.  Even absolute vegetarian who does not like the smell of fish/meat will never be able to get he smell of meat/fish.

By all the above one will miss the fun (if it were in India) of going to shop at designated time to get the fresh vegetables, else one will be left with low quality of fruits and vegetables.  Competing with other fellows in choosing the good quality vegetable by checking each one of them such as breaking the okra (ladies finger) tip to check they are tender enough.  Check egg-plant throughly such that you don't find any black spots which denotes there is a worm inside.  Check the peas (pealed) that is not colored green.

After undergoing all these challenges, we come home and give them a through shower to store in the refrigerators.  Especially the greens (such as spinach) we have to be extra careful to clean them to make sure there is no traces of mud in it.

Its fun to handle all these problems especially in everyday life.
