You may say not, but (sorry :-) ) the japanese culture is extremely
homogenous and their education since childhood is to conform with
the mainstrean way of thinking. It's very easy to "interface" with
each other because of it, I think. Probably in some near future,
this won't be valid anymore because there are more and more japanese
looking for values for themselves, but so far "ishin denshin" is 
possible due all that standard education and homogenous background.
