(from SAGE RACE RELATIONS ABSTRACTS VOLUME 32 NUMBER 2 May 2007, Manchester, UK)  Illegal immigration is very interesting!

(from Palgrave Connect)

Human smuggling is the importation of people into a country via the deliberate evasion of immigration laws. This includes bringing illegal aliens into a country, as well as the unlawful transportation and harboring of aliens already in a country illegally. Some smuggling situations may involve murder, rape and assault (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (https://www.ice.gov/human-smuggling)).

Human trafficking, also known as trafficking in persons or modern-day slavery, is a crime that involves compelling or coercing a person to provide labor or services, or to engage in commercial sex acts.  The coercion can be subtle or overt, physical or psychological.  Exploitation of a minor for commercial sex is human trafficking, regardless of whether any form of force, fraud, or coercion was used (U.S. Department of Justice (https://www.justice.gov/humantrafficking/what-is-human-trafficking)).  

 I like  Fire One Days Black coffee. 

I help HANSHIN Tigers.　I am interested in  the papers of new issue alert, for example AI  (artificial intelligence).　

I read the Yomiuri Newspaper.　　I like Youtube, Tibet music.

I keep my diary (Japanese), and read Google News and life style in Microsoft Start (Japanese).   

I sing the praises of my life, gaining serotonin and dopamine by writing a paper and a book, as it is interesting for them.

I drink Yakult 1000.   I take Bawei Dihuang Pills four times per a day.
