A Little Taste Of Japan
February 17th, 2012 at 5:30 amJapanese individuals have been settling in Britain since the 19th century and the Japanese community has continued to grow ever since. The Office for National Statistics estimates that, in 2008, 32,000 people born in Japan had been resident in the UK.
Modest numbers of Japanese folks travelled to Britain around the middle of the 19th century and most were government officials or students.
Around the time of World War I, Japanese migration to Britain increased as Japan’s economy expanded rapidly and Japanese organisations, typically trading firms and banks, shifted some of their workers to Britain to set up shop.
By the time World War II had began, most Japanese had returned to their homeland and those who remained in Britain had been sent back home. The little British Japanese community was eradicated and it was not rebuilt until the 1980s when the booming Japanese economy once once more brought branches of Japanese firms to Britain’s capital city.
