Abstract
This paper surveys the problems faced by the returnees from China, and how their life is affected by the difference and relationships of dwelling culture and daily living habits between China and Japan.
The results of our survey are as follows :
Handicapped in communicative power in Japanese, the returnees find it difficult to communicate with their relatives and neigrhbors, and take part in neighborhood meetings. The difference in dwelling culture and daily living habits have brought about a number of inconveniences on the part of the returnees; it is desired that the returnees strive to learn Japanese while adequate administrative arrangements be made to nable their learning and help close cultural gaps for both the returnees and the Japanese.
