Now accepting application, the Japanese Mafia

Quote:

Want to join the mafia? Check the classifieds

OSAKA - Japan's largest yakuza, or mafia, gang is placing advertisements for bodyguards in the newspapers in a desperate move to recruit new members.

The ads, which appeared in the classifieds section of sports newspapers in Kansai, promised a remuneration of 150,000 yen (S$2,385) a month, lodgings and three meals a day.

Although the ads were not placed under the name of Yamaguchi-gumi, Japan's largest yakuza gang, the contact numbers listed could be traced to the gang's office, the Mainichi Shimbun newspaper reported yesterday.

The ads first appeared in at least two daily sports newspapers in mid-October and continued until earlier this week, the report said.

Japan's economic recession has hit even the yakuza, who are finding it difficult to make money and find fresh blood.

Free-spirited Japanese youngsters are unwilling to join the mafia, knowing that they will be expected to be totally obedient to their superiors under the gang's strict code of ethics.

Police feared the recruitment ads are a sign of the mafia's desperation and warned people not to get involved.

Have you ever seen the movie "BROTHER"? It's about the yakuza and it also stars Omar Epps. LMAO. :D

Rumor in the family [dad's side, anyway] says that my relatives in Japan still deal with the mob. With that said, because I know the Yamaguchi-gumi isn't my "clan", I doubt I'll be applying anytime soon.

I didn't really feel like getting my fingers cut off anyway. ;)

No fresh blood... awwww!

Haha! I don't think it's comprehensive - they only knock your bad teeth out, but they don't put new ones in.
