The low income cosmopolitan in Hida Takayama

The above logo is my logo. I don’t know this motif. Actually, my father adopted this logo so I don’t know what the logo stands for. Therefore, what I am doing is this: guessing.

 So it looks just like my family name’s first letter - “小”.  

By the way, my name is “小嶋尚”. “小嶋” is my family name, meaning “small island”. And “尚” is my name, but I don’t know exactly the meaning of this Chinese character - “尚”.

Usually in Japan, some parents tend to name their children using difficult Chinese characters. Unfortunately that case applied to me. No one can read my name correctly.

Anyway, the logo looks like “小”, and it also looks like three standing buildings.

According to the Takyama Shiminjihou, Takayama City Office is going to give 3,500 low income householders a kerosene coupon that amounts to 44.30￡, from the city’s extra budget. And the total number of householders in Hida Takayama is 34,340.

During the severe winter season in Hida Takayama, 3,500 out of 34,340 would be in misery this winter.

So I am looking forward to being contacted by Takayama City Office. How could I say, I am definitely a low income blogger in Hida Takayama.  Also, I am a low income real cosmopolitan in Hida Takayama, even in Japan, the lowest of the low.

So, give me a shelter and kerosene, please!

In Japan, people who can speak English fluently have always been ostracized by the Japanese who can not speak English. And, the have nots are the majority and the haves are very, very few. Therefore, English speaking people are not promoted in the Japanese social hierarchy, as I am not, because of  the Japanese people’s envy and jealousy.

This is why I need a kerosene coupon, please!

According to the Japanese news paper - “The Chunichi Newspaper”, Ninja means “no income and no job” in the latest economical saying. And I have a blog - “Ninja Business in Hida Takayama, Japan” in Japan.

So, I need a free kerosene coupon, please!

Here in Hida Takayama, owing to globalization, the middle class people have rapidly disappeared from this life. After the collapse of the Berlin Wall, former communist countries have turned to capitalism.  Is this the “New Economy”?  Please!
