A Korean man living in Japan has reportedly adopted 554 children in order to claim 86 million yen in annual child support payments.
The man, said to be a Korean in his fifties, approached the benefits office at the city of Amagasaki in Hyogo prefecture, where he enquired about the possibility of claiming child support for his children.
He introduced his Thai wife and explained that the couple, in addition to their own child, were now the legal guardians of all the orphans at a Thai monastery, and had the official documents to prove it.
He presented a list containing the details of 554 children – the clerk reportedly asked “Which child is yours?” to which he replied “All of them.”
Japan’s DPJ administration recently passed a law providing free money to parents based on the number of children they have.
However, shortly after being passed it was realised that a major loophole had been left in the incompetently drafted law, as there was no upper limit on the amount that could be claimed or the number of children who could be claimed for.
Worse yet, the law allows parents to claim for children not living in Japan, and is available to non-Japanese residents of Japan (which is essentially reasonable as they have to pay the same taxes and national insurance contributions as Japanese).
Japan’s generally highly xenophobic right wing soon began spreading fanciful tales of benefits offices crammed with Chinese immigrants trying to claim a fortune in benefits for their non-existent families overseas.
These tales were soon disproven, but this case seems to demonstrate a kernel of truth – when the man approached the benefits office, he was able to claim a monthly allowance of ¥13,000 for each child, yielding an annual income of 86,580,000, nearly a million dollars.
Although legally entitled to the funds, the embarrassed Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare said it would be “impossible” to provide him with the money, “as they are not living together.” There is apparently no legal basis for denying him the funds, however.
Just what will become of the 554 orphans is not recorded.

Ok, this is clearly an loophole exploitation.
There was no way he could of taken care of all 554 childrens.
he probably discovered the loophole in the law and wanted to exploit it.
Kudos to him but...he needs to be deported.
Dont bite the hand that feeds you.
He could take care of them if he had a million dollar income.
It came so that the Chinese whom the time limit of the visa exceeded might apply. The time for which it searched by using the tax was able to be saved. It is repatriation to China then and there.
It's hard enough to feed, cloth, shoe, and make sure one child is given a proper education. This man is going to need an army of volunteers to help him with the child bearing. And I mean volunteers because fuck all of that money is going to be left after all the daily living expenses are taken care of...
it's a pedo-millionaire!
wait till they go to collage
Lol its the same scam Bender tries in Futurama, he then tries to sell the kids to a Chinese resturaunt :D
Seriously though what a parasite, deport the fucker.
This application also have the purpose to extract the illegal.
It will be a miracle if the DPJ ever wins another election after all the shit they've been doing.
Wow, trying to get the government to pay you almost a million dollars a year.
You gotta respect a man who dreams big.
If only he could live with all those lolis and shotas too.
All Koreans are like that, they are fucking stupid and stubborn and think they actually have rights, but they forgot that the Rights were created with us "Humans" In mind not bacteria.
All humans are like that, they are fucking stupid and stubborn and think they actually have rights, but they forgot that nature is a system wherein humans mean fuck all, and they better not forget to respect that.
They need to rethink their laws before putting them into action. There will always be some jerk trying to live off the system through its loopholes.
This is a stupid law to begin with. People don't need free money because they have kids. Fuck that. They can try and earn their money.
It's for stupid fucks like my mother who have kids when they have no income. It's so us kids don't get totally fucked.
Agree.
Though, for parents like that I would prefer receiving the money myself and live by myself. I've seen people who started living alone (for various reasons) when they were fourteen and they are now the best people I've ever met.
I wish that money could be ensured to be used in the kids (more than one moron parent uses it for their own interest).
- Which child is yours?
- All of them (trollface)
Of couse,he should take care of all children.
Said children also should be given free access to bb guns,sling shots and hardcore rap music.
He's gone a litte too far, I think...
It's amazing what people will do for money.
He's going to train them all to be Athena Saints!
"is available to non-Japanese residents of Japan (which is essentially reasonable as they have to pay the same taxes and national insurance contributions as Japanese)."
I don't get how race has to do with anything. So if he was Japanese, this wouldn't be an issue?
This definitely puts Octomom to shame
HOOOOOOOLLLLLYYYYYYY SSHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTT!
hahah Korean ftw!
This guy is FTW
I bet the Japanese government regrets that failed socialist policy now.
Damn those Zergs, stop the spawn!
in short-
no lolis/shota proof on hand, no money.
하여튼 거지근성 잉여 쓰레기 루저 새끼때문에 한국이 욕 처먹는거야. 태국에서 대규모 강간이라도 저질렀냐?
머리 빈 좌빨조센징들아
your language is too inferior for us to understand.
go die you korean trash
不法滞在者を1人探すのに数十万円の費用が掛かるんよ。んで、http://headlines.yahoo.co.jp/hl?a=20100425-00000033-san-bus_allを読むと、不法滞在者も申請にやって来てる。数十万円の費用の掛かる捜索が、金を使わずに出来る。この政策ってもしかしたら不法滞在者を釣る為の政策も兼ねてるかもしれんね。ひとまずこの政策、様子見だな。
I am GOD
All these people are my children
Now give me MONEH!
Clearly, a free-loader of the system. The Japanese government should focus fixing up their public infrastructure instead of defending the 2d children. :p
LOl thats not Japanese-exclusive thing...
here Gypsies have 3-4-5-6+ children and get enough money to live on, and dont need to work so; tho adopting 500 child wouldn't work as the law itself is quite strict.
Tired of xenophobic japs...Same of cheap difficulty in their games.....same old annoying anime.......same old annoying EVERYTHING. JAPAN WILL NEVER CHANGE!
If you aren't a blond hair eye eye white person those filthy japs won't like you. Fucking sick of asians.
and the gooks are any different?
blonde hair dye,eye surgery(gooks have the smallest eyes of all asians) Refurbished old American fashion.
Your the xenophobe douchebag, ever been to japan before? They treat everybody the same, most of them don't give half a shit what you are.
failtroll is fail
Well, the guy *does* have 554 mouths to feed. That's a lot.
Should be feasible since Asia is extremely over populated...
Cool, he probably gonna raise anti-japan army from them
Funny that a foreign couple did this crazy scam, but thanks to him, the legal loopholes will be closed.
True enough; perfecting fresh laws like this usually takes longer as a large scale exploitation in small amounts is harder to notice than one huge scam hitting the headlines.
System exploitation win.
social security systems - not for the faint of heart.
Because what Japan needs right now is more ammunition for the right-wingers to use against foreigners resulting and lock the country down into its spiral to oblivion...
Soon we'll get that :
Best job in Japan => Loli Maker
Now that should help the low birth problem. Anyone wish to apply?
and then you market those lolis off to the lolicons on sankaku? you sneaky bastard you! :)
