Distribution industry of Japanese Brazilians

Japanese immigration to Brazil is organized. According to the immigration contract signed between Royal Japanese Immigration Company and Brazil, Japanese immigrants who first arrived in Brazil mainly engaged in coffee cultivation in Sao Paulo mainland. After the expiration of the contract, Japanese immigrants began to spread to the seaside area of S? o Paulo. Today, there are still 40% Japanese Brazilians who do not forget their ancestral businesses and engage in agricultural production. Most of them are engaged in service industries, such as hairdressing, opening restaurants and clinics. Others dabbled in finance and politics and made achievements. The current information minister of Lula's government is Japanese and the second Japanese minister. The first Japanese to work in the Brazilian government was the Minister of Energy and Mining and the President of Petrobras. Most Japanese Brazilians have served in the Brazilian army. During World War II, many Japanese Brazilians participated in Brazil's war against Italy. Some Japanese living in Brazil are even persecuted by Japanese militarism.
