This is the first novel Chin has authored. The book was written to raise awareness of issues Japan faces in preparation for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. There’s also a particular urgency surrounding this launch considering that the novel comes during the hottest recorded year in Earth’s history, alongside announcement of Japan’s plans to use AI robots to serve tourists during the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo.

“Kyosei” sets its main focus on self-awareness. Readers will likely find the futuristic vision for Japan applicable in 2016. The book is being released by the author.

Brandon Chin has a background in Japanese culture and language. Growing up in the USA under the wing of a Japanese karate sensei for close to a decade and living in Japan for three years completely immersed in the culture inspired him to raise awareness around social issues that affect not just Japan, but the world.

When asked about why he wrote the book, Chin said: “After living all throughout Japan, I witnessed nature I’ve never seen elsewhere during my travels. The experience left me quite humbled and inspired. Choosing to leave after the Fukushima nuclear disaster in 2011, I became interested in environmental activism. I joined a research internship in university that spoke of how to activate people to contribute to sustainability. The key was self-efficacy, which means that the more a person feels confident in their ability to act and be effective, the more they will feel compelled to act for a complex cause like environmental justice. I experienced the same sensation during my travels. Feeling quite empowered in myself, I returned to Japan in 2012 and participated in online activism while I learned the language on self-sustainable farms with World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms (WWOOF). This book, loosely based off those few years in Japan, pinpoints self-awareness as the first step to any venture.”

Chin has hopes that the book will encourage readers to pay attention to the systems that shape their daily lives. He plans on launching a petition with readers on his email list to large Japanese organizations. The massive, international movement known as Avaaz has succeeded in huge victories for the environment, including the largest climate march in history in 2014. In Japan, they have put pressure on the government for cruel whaling and dolphin hunting, as well as cleaning up the nuclear waste after Fukushima. Chin, a member of the Avaaz community for five years, aims to collaborate with readers on his email list in holding Japan accountable before the Olympics.

In a recent interview, the author made a point of thanking his mother, father, and brother who have supported him from around the world during the writing process, saying: “You are my roots. Without your support and criticism, I would not be determined enough to start typing. I love you.”
