    I've been meaning to make this video for a couple years, even before I was #trashtag by Rachel and Jun. And as I was about to release, I learned about #teamseas. What a coincidence! Support a good cause by helping to remove garbage from oceans at teamseas.org/. Every $1 removes 1lb of garbage from the ocean (The Ocean Conservancy and the Ocean Cleanup will be making sure the donations turn into cleanup). I'll be donating and hope you can join me!

    The children are raised properly by their parents and teachers and they carry their cleaning traditions into adulthood
  • When you mentioned the cleaning done by soccer fans I instantly remembered how absolutely SHOCKED Brazilians were to see the Japanese cleaning the stadium after the end of every match they were in at the World Cup 2014. It actually became news in the big media around these parts. 😅
  • @valusha_wooster
    I was in Japan this year. I was struck by the cleanliness in the center of Tokyo. I've traveled all over Japan and everything is very clean. Very friendly and neat people. Perhaps a sense of inner dignity led to such accuracy and reasonableness.
  • Japan is an ideal country for its cleanliness. I hope people all over the world learn that kind of upbringing and discipline.
  • @keithkyli
    Japan also feels "clean" by how well the roads and pavements are maintained. Most roads have smooth, uniform tarmac surfaces and pavements are nicely laid with fitting slabs, free of large crevices or bumps. Potholes and uneven roads are rare, mostly found in rural areas and repaired during planned revamps. This makes the walking and driving experience visually clean and physically pleasant.
  • When it comes to cleanliness, Japan's level of discipline and teamwork from their citizens is so inspiring.
  • @idolcarol5264
    Disciplined since birth! That’s the way they educate their children! I’ve been in Japan for 30 yrs & that was really ammazed me, very clean country!
  • @ArnoldPranks
    Pandemic or not, Japan is the cleanest major country on Earth. I've been many places, and I can say this with confidence.
  • @martian9999
    perhaps it's also the Japanese philosophy whereas a job done well is always honorable -- there are no "inferior" or "dirty" jobs. Cleaning is for everybody, because it elevates everybody.
  • @aravindgtch
    Cleanliness is a habit that has to be cultivated from childhood. It is a noble imitable culture to clean not only our compound but our surroundings also.
  • @Asifur_Rahman
    Japan is so clean, this is one of the reason why i like Japan.
  • @geraldbaria
    Japan has it all figured out…it’s all in the people themselves. What a country.👏🏻
  • @Ratatoothie
    This is beautiful. Something every country in the world should implement. I learned how to efficiently recycle when I started researching Japan.
  • @ericzaddock
    Discipline, self respect, love for place, teaching children properly. So Awesome!
  • @coloringfunn
    hygiene and cleanliness is more of A Mentality of a society
  • @gugy68
    It’s all about culture. People there are educated, clean, polite to an extreme and hard worker. We definitely need some of these traits in the US and many other countries.
  • @Lyoshi157
    "How does your country keep clean?" In my country we just don't.
  • @thxlovefactor
    They have such a strong sense of community. I think that’s one of the contributing factors as well. Japan is possibly one of my favorite countries in the world because by comparison, they seem to excel in morality, integrity, humanity, and spirituality. Not all may display these qualities but the fact that they are generally ingrained and valued in the culture itself is admirable.
