Immigration Policy, Is the 'Points Visa' Controversy Not a New Story? 🤔
The 'Points Visa' recently announced by Figio has become a hot topic. When I first heard the news, I thought, 'Is this another new policy?' But it turns out this isn't the first time! 😮 There were similar proposals in the past, and some analyses suggest they were attempts to solve problems that didn't yet exist. Let's explore how things will unfold this time.
Hello! Today, I'd like to share some interesting stories about the 'Points Visa,' which has been frequently mentioned in recent news. I was really intrigued when I first heard about it. 🤔
What is a 'Points Visa'?
The 'Points Visa' recently announced by Figio is known as a system that grants permanent residency to foreigners who meet certain score requirements. While it might sound like a new idea at first glance, discussions related to this are not new.
Were There Similar Proposals in the Past?
There's an analysis suggesting that Figio's 'Points Visa' proposal is actually not unfamiliar. According to one article, this is the third time the PP (People's Party) has put forward a similar proposal. Even a blog that has been active since 2003 mentioned a similar proposal when they were 17 years old, analyzing that it was an attempt to solve problems that did not yet exist at the time. 😮

Diverse Perspectives on the 'Points Visa'
Of course, various viewpoints exist regarding these 'Points Visa' proposals. While some positively evaluate it as an improvement for immigrants, others analyze it as a proposal to solve problems like 'demographic structural issues' that have not yet materialized.
'Populism' Controversy as Well?
Furthermore, there are also accusations of 'populism.' According to a report from one media outlet, Feijóo's immigration policy has been analyzed as having 'populist' characteristics. This could lead to criticism that while seemingly advocating for immigration policy improvements on the surface, it lacks in-depth consideration of its actual effects or feasibility.
Future Outlook?
As such, discussions surrounding the 'Points Visa' are expected to continue. Whether this proposal will bring about substantial change or remain merely a discussion, as in the past, remains to be seen.
What are your thoughts on the 'Points Visa'? Immigration policy is a truly important part of our society, and it would be good to ponder together in which direction we should move forward. 😊
