I hope the Japanese learn of what Apple generally thinks of them.
Countless Japanese have been terminated by Apple over the years, because of their Race -- After having to work twice as hard as White employees and having all their ideas stolen.
They typically get transferred to an Asian manager and have fraudulent paper trails made over the next few months, to screw them over before they get terminated.
The few that remain earn a fraction of what White Apple employees get paid.
Another reason to by shoddy Apple products.

I don't believe the sincerity of this claim. Apple values all of its employees.

Oh boy. More accusations. Still no sources. Give us one reason to believe you. Please.
Apple has excellent Japanese language support. Often Japanese is the only non-English language available for Apple's lesser apps (like Project Builder and Xcode) or services (like .mac webmail). And despite all that we should believe you?

Apple takes good care of the Japanese and Chinese... I hope Apple open a store in Hong Kong or somewhere in China/Taiwan.

Awesome Now that this point has been made, I think this thread should be locked.

Hmm, although I don't know about the veracity of this claim, I did find it strange that a certain Japanese-American person whom I know well was at first refused admission to the original announcement event for the new iPod back in May at the Apple Store SoHo.
It was raining on that day, and after having stood outside in line in the rain for about a half-hour, a contract security clerk working at the store told him to stand aside outside the store and wait.
He waited and waited. During this time, he repeatedly asked the security guards and the store employees why he was being made to wait, but every person he asked just told him to keep waiting. In the meantime, everybody in line who had originally been behind him entered the store before he could. After about twenty minutes, he was finally allowed in.
When he asked the store manager why he had been made to wait, the manager apologized and said that it had been a case of "mistaken identity."
I happened to be there at the time, and saw it all happen with my own eyes.
It's all so strange because this all happened just after he had purchased a 17-inch [Rev. A] PowerBook G4 (although not from that particular store).
