Four years ago, the government gave a house to stay in Naoko and Tacuzzi Aida couple. Absolutely free They got a house in a small double bed in the small town of Okutuma, near the city of Tokyo. Before receiving the house, Nauko lived with his parents for three children.
45-year-old Nauko said that many of the new buildings have to be repaired. But he had dreamed of living in an area of quiet shades, rather than the busiest Tokyo, in front of the house.
Just like this one is offering a house - if anyone smokes or smells in the matter, it is nothing new for the Japanese. This is happening in Japan's current socioeconomic conditions. The next place is the next land, but it is possible to do it yourself.
According to the Japan Policy Forum 2013, according to Japan, there are 5 billion and 2 million households in comparison to 6 million 10 million households. The situation has worsened after 2013. According to the National Institute of Population and Social Security, by 2065, Japan's population is expected to decrease from 1.27 million to 880 million. Education, most of the young people are leaving the village and going to the city. Most people are giving up at a nominal price or at a free price, because of their own place. As a result, the rural areas are becoming empty. Occasionally, seeing the houses of the village, it seems as if ghost chattel The Japanese gave the names of these vacant properties to 'Akiya'.
Various incentives for speeding up the Akija property are given on the basis of the region. Japan is also allowing foreign nationals to stay here. So it can be said that if you want to stay in a city like Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, foreigners can think of staying in Japan.
In the meantime, in addition to decreasing the birth rate for many years, the number of elderly people is increasing in the country. Every year in Japan there are four million births and deaths. Life expectancy is up to 84 years, which is more than any other country in the world. The population of 65 and older is 28.1 percent. As the UN, this number is the highest in the world, 23.3 percent in Italy, 21.9 percent in Portugal, and 21.7 percent in Germany, 15 in the United States and 6 percent of India. There are currently 69 thousand 785 people in Japan or more than the hundred or more people in Japan. Seven times more than two decades ago.
Due to the decreasing population, by the year 2040 about 900 cities and villages will not exist in Japan; Okutama is a city too. Cities leaving vacant cities like Okuthuma, are heading towards the city, for the sake of survival.
In the year 2014, we discovered that the three areas of Tokyo are going to be lost in the year 2040, there are oakutamma, said Kazutka Nizima, official official of Oktumam Youth Rehabilitation (ORR), who is working on publicizing Okutama.
But this was not even thought 50 years ago. In the 1960's, about 13,000 people lived in Okutama. The timber business was quite profitable. But in 1990, due to the change in the structure of the import and the reduction of wood demand, the youth were leaving the area demanding life. At present, the population of Okutama is only 5 thousand 200. There are many houses left empty
In order to combat the problem, 'Akia Bank' or 'Empty House Project' was launched on behalf of the Young Revitalization Department in 2014. Through this project, a link to the house owner or an empty property is created with the vendors. The concept of 'Akiya Bank' is now seen in many regions of Japan. Each city has set its own conditions and sets its own conditions.
Okutamah authorities are also subsidizing the repair of the older ones who are buying them. Interestingly, Oikumata paid 8,820 dollars per 100 square feet to repair the house of Akia owners. However, some conditions are given, such as: 1. Those who get the house or repair money free of cost, they must be under 40 years of age. 2. Or there should be a couple who have a child under 18 years of age. 3. Otherwise, one of the two spouses should be under the age of 50. Of course, it is very difficult to deal with the problem. Because, where there is more home than people, it is very easy to buy a new house.
There are now three thousand houses in Okutama, 400 of them are empty. It is possible to repair half of these 400 homes. The rest are very risky, absolutely ineligible. In the twentieth century, population growth doubled twice in Japan. After World War II and in the 1980's. Until the 1980s, overall economic development of Japan was called the Japan's post-war economic wonders. At this time, due to the increase of population, there is a shortfall in the house. Cheap homes were built in densely populated areas. The values of those houses were also very bad. As a result, 85 percent of the people found alternative new homes.
In 2015, the government enforces that those who leave the house empty-handed will have to pay the penalty. That means either to destroy the house or to make a new decision. From that time, the government decided to fix more than the income of the vacant land, rather than empty land.
The 'Akia Project' is not limited to Japanese citizens only, earlier this year a family in the Philippines started living in Okutama. Family with husband and wife and six children was earlier in the city of Tokyo.
The family said that they were not very good in Tokyo. But it was important to have Tokyo. So natured homes have been their very choice.
Japan is somewhat conservative to take foreign In this, meritorious and skilled workers also get less work opportunities in the country. However, Japan has recently announced to take foreign workers to meet the shortage of operational people. In such situations, the attractive opportunity for Japanese citizens can be 'Akiya'.
However, only free living is not enough for newcomers; There is a need for a sustainable economic development plan for small communities like Okutama. Besides, a community building program is needed for local and newcomers; If they want to improve.
Professor Jeffrey Ho of the University of Washington University said that if people find a way to manage productive economic activities, then they will come and stay in rural areas. There is a city in Japan called Kamiuma. It also got a problem like Okutama. But in 2011, its population continued to grow. Technology companies set up satellite offices in this area. As a result, people in distress in urban life find interest.
