| My wild guesses are:
1) writting problem
2) Most foreigners do not understand their culture, art & spirit which is link to
koi appreciation so they rather talk to their own hobbyists.
3) Japanese alway perfer to buy things from their own Japan company even
when they are aboard so they might also perfer to talk to their own people?
4) Japanese feel that most foreigner do not know how to raise koi properly or
select a decent tategoi koi. They treat koi as a project & will spend years
developing & understanding them. Foreign hobbyists??
5) When you carry up a koi it does not flip & splash like any other fishes does.
We might think they are not so smart for a fish or tame but the Japanese
think their koi have samurai spirit in them. They are not afraid of you.
6) Their social thinking. Though Japanese are humble & polite the younger
generation are not afraid to show what they want, they are still tie to
their social behaviour.
These are just wild guesses hope no offend to anyone.
