To President Trump!
August 29, 2025
Apple announced plans to invest approximately $100 billion "additionally" to strengthen its US manufacturing operations. Yay, Trump!
The company will install production lines for the specialized glass needed for products like iPhones at its own factories, and will also invest in expanding sem-iconductor production at US factories operated by Taiwanese semiconductor giant TSMC and others.
Apple already announced a $500 billion investment plan in February of this year, bringing its total investment over the next four years to $600 billion.
In a press conference with President Trump, CEO Cook stated, "We will work with component suppliers to relocate advanced manufacturing capabilities to the US."
Apple is working to move production of iPhones sold in the US from China to India to avoid the Trump administration's tariffs on China.
However, President Trump wants production to remain within the US. Apple should strongly urge President Trump to establish the special zone (factory zone) I (Nagano) have proposed on the Mexican border.
Apple should explain to President Trump that to compete with Chinese and In-dian smartphone manufacturers, it needs a large number of low-wage workers in the assembly process.
I have proposed accepting illegal immigrants from Latin America, who are flock-ing to the Mexican border, as temporary immigrants within special economic zones.
Temporary immigrants are even lower-wage workers than workers from China, India, and other countries. Given the same land prices and equipment, factory products produced in industrial zones that can employ low-wage workers have a price competitive advantage.
Apple is not the only company in need of low-wage workers. The shipbuilding industry desperately needs workers willing to endure low wages and harsh working conditions.
President Trump is concerned that the US shipbuilding industry is in decline, far worse than China's. Americans are no longer willing to work in harsh working conditions.
In the shipbuilding industry, only Chinese workers are subjected to harsh work-ing conditions. South Korea's shipbuilding workforce has also been declining in recent years. Trump should understand these working conditions.
I have proposed accepting illegal immigrants from Central and South America as "temporary immigrants," training them as "shipbuilders," and employing them in the shipbuilding industry.
To achieve this, we need to establish a "special zone" on the Mexican border. We need to accept illegal immigrants as "temporary immigrants."
In this "special zone," it is essential that the United States, in cooperation with Japan and other countries, build "shipyards" and employ these "temporary im-migrants." Please understand this.

Part 2. "Immigration Control Act Violation Cases" "Weekday Edition".
"Everyone" in the "international community" please help!
First, please read about the "false accusation" of "aiding and abetting violation of immigration law" in 2010.
❤Click below to read the full article!
https://toworldmedia.blogspot.com/
"Chapter 1". The summary of the incident is as follows.
In the fall of 2008, my company (I am the president) promised to hire "Chinese people studying abroad on student visas". I "issued" them "employment contracts" stating that "LEFCO" would "employ" them when they graduated from university the following spring.
However, after that, the "Lehman Shock" occurred in 2008.
As a result, orders for "system development" from the following year onwards were "cancelled".
As a result, "LEFCO" "cancelled" the "employment" of "those who were scheduled to join the company" in 2009.
Therefore, "they" continued to work at the restaurants where they had worked part-time as students even after graduating in 2009.
In May 2010, the Chinese were arrested for "violating Article 70 of the Immigration Control Act" by "activities outside of the status of residence".
In June 2010, after their arrest, I and the Chinese person in charge of recruitment (KingGungaku) were also arrested.
The reason was "crime of aiding and abetting" the Chinese for "violating Article 70 of the Immigration Control Act (activities outside the status of residence)".
<Reason for arrest> The prosecution said that I and KingGungaku giving the Chinese a "false employment contract" constituted "crime of aiding and abetting" under the Criminal Code.
"Chapter 2". Crimes in the judgment: (arbitrary and ridiculous)
The charges in the indictment are "the very provisions" of "Article 22-4-4 of the Immigration Control Act".
If a "status of residence" is obtained by submitting false documents, the Minister of Justice can revoke the "status of residence" at his "discretion". (And the person will be deported).
Therefore, even if a Chinese person submits "false documents," it is not a crime. It is not a crime to "aid" an innocent act.
The "reason for punishment" in the judgment:
1. The Chinese person obtained "resident status" by submitting a "false employment contract."
2. And they violated the Immigration Control Act (activities outside of their status of residence).
3. The Chinese person obtained "resident status" because "we" provided the Chinese person with a "false employment contract."
4. The Chinese person was able to "reside" in Japan because he obtained "resident status."
5. Because of that, the Chinese person was able to "work illegally."
6. Therefore, "we" who "provided" the Chinese person with a "false employment contract" were punished for "aiding" the Chinese person's "activities outside of their status of residence."
This is an "error" in the arbitrary "logic of law."
This reasoning is the "argument" that "when the wind blows, the barrel maker (profits)." This goes against "legal logic" even internationally.
The "criminal reason" in the indictment cannot be a crime because the provisions of the "Immigration Control Act," which is a "special law," take precedence over the "Criminal Code," which is a "general law."
My argument:
"1": The Immigration Control Act stipulates that the Minister of Justice will revoke the act of a foreigner who has obtained a residence status by submitting false documents (Immigration Control Act: Article 22-4-4, cancellation of residence status) through "administrative disposition." That's all.
"2": The Chinese who engaged in "unqualified work activities" are not guilty. The reason is that their "employers" have not been punished for the "crime of aiding and abetting illegal employment" under Article 73-2 of the Immigration Control Act.
Therefore, under the principle of "equality under the law," the Chinese are not guilty.
The Japanese government has punished "diplomats and Philippine embassy staff" for the exact same "criminal reason."
However, like the Chinese government, the Philippine government is also silent.
The rest will be published in the Saturday edition.
Part 3. Special Zone Construction. A new business model.
Special Zones accept refugees and immigrants as temporary immigrant workers and limit their residence to the special zone.
Developed countries use them as low-wage workers and achieve high economic growth again.
Refugees and immigrants can get jobs and live a hopeful, humane life.
Temporary immigrants are low-wage, but "food, clothing, shelter, medical expenses, and education are free."
