It's not just like the same thing as foreigners without a re-entry visa
cannot use "Japanese" counters. I'm saying that because I was *really*
surprised when I came from my last business trip and the person in
"Foreigner" counter said:" Hey! Why don't you use the japanese counter?".
Then I said:"Simple, I"m not japanese", he said: "No.No. If you have a
re-entry visa you can go there". Then I was wondering why the japanese
didn't write something like:"Japanese and residents" instead that
stupid "japanese" only.... :-) :-) (Two :-) just in case...)
