Deportations cannot be carried out during the application or appeal process.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">The revisions, Justice Minister Yoko Kamikawa argued, will solve the problem of repeated asylum bids leading to indefinite detention and the accompanying stress.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">\u201cMany individuals have been trying to avoid deportation, contributing to their prolonged detention,\u201d she said, insinuating that they have been trying to game the system.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">She added that the official discretion will \u201cunlikely\u201d be wrong since each application would have been independently reviewed twice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">But the United Nations Human Rights Council, which has criticised Japan\u2019s practice of prolonged detention, has slammed the proposed revisions by saying that they do not meet international criteria for human rights protection.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Japan\u2019s meagre refugee acceptance rate means that the two-strikes-you-are-out rule will only serve to endanger a vast majority of asylum seekers, activists say.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Only 44 out of 10,375 applications were accepted in 2019, or a rate of 0.4 per cent.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Comparatively, the United States accepted 29.6 per cent of refugee applicants, while Germany accepted 25.9 per cent.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">The proposed revisions include a \u201csupervisory measure\u201d for provisional release under strict conditions, including a ban on paid work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Activists say the reforms are for the worse. Protests and silent marches have been held in Tokyo.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Ippei Torii of the Solidarity Network with Migrants Japan said at one such rally: \u201cWe need to change our society in which those who should be protected are treated like criminals.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Wishma came to Japan on a student visa in 2017, but her permit was cancelled in 2019 when she was unable to afford her tuition fees.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Media reports said her dream was to teach English in Japan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">She initially said she wanted to return to Sri Lanka when she was first taken in by the authorities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">But she changed her mind with flights reduced due to COVID-19 and with her boyfriend writing a letter to her threatening revenge.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Yasunori Matsui, 66, an adviser to Start, said: \u201cRather than listening to immigrants\u2019 needs and providing relief, Japan is treating them like a problem and looking at how to send them back. If there was any true understanding of the value of human life, it would have been possible to save her.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Wishma\u2019s mother said at an online news conference: \u201cMy daughter is not an animal.
