Japan moves to tighten rules for foreigners, throwing futures into doubt

Japan is moving to tighten its rules for foreign residents, and Al Jazeera reports that the changes are throwing people's futures into doubt. The measures could affect the status and long-term prospects of foreigners living and working in Japan, a country that has increasingly relied on foreign labour amid a shrinking population.
Why now: New immigration rules in Japan create uncertainty for foreign residents and the employers who depend on them.
