Protest against alien registration cards

Chong A Yong (right), a permanent Korean resident in Japan, mails his alien registration card to Japan's Justice Minister Takao Jinnouchi at Osaka Central Post Office on June 5 in protest against a Japanese law that requires foreign residents to carry their alien cards all the time. The placard behind Chong reads ''No to alien registration card.'' The card-carrying requirement will remain intact even though the government plans to decriminalize the punishment against violators. ==Kyodo
