Romanian minority in Japan

Hi. You added a green square in File:Map Roumanophone World.png, representing the Romanian-speaking minority in Japan. Did you have a specific criterion in mind? Do you have any sources? I just happen to be a Romanian living in Japan and I don't know of any significant Romanian minority in Japan. There are indeed Romanians living here, but they are a tiny group compared to the Romanian speakers in France, Germany, Israel, New Zealand, Canada, and many other countries, which are not highlighted on that map. To give you an idea, there is only one Romanian restaurant in Tokyo, and most customers are Japanese, by far. There is no Romanian church here, either. This is certainly not the typical behavior of a significant ethnic minority.

I believe that map is highly arbitrary, and your addition has made it more so. — AdiJapan 08:22, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
