I would love to visit Japan. Too bad I can't afford to go there, unless my company gets a Jap principal, I don't think I will get a chance to go. Nah, you don't need religion to behave yourself, just principles and common sense, and respect for others. Had a Japanese female colleague who'd habitually put down Japanese men (she had a Caucasian bf) whom I'd often tease what does whale meat taste like to which she'd get all fumed up. In a nutshell, I like things Japanese and the way they portray themselves (although my Ah Kong would disagree). Most of all, I like Japan for their motorbikes.
Cheers!
