Data collection techniques are with observation and indepth interviews of 3 Japanese and 5 Indonesian people living in Japan as research informants. Secondary data were from books, journals, and articles that are relevant to the research theme.

The tradition takes place across cultures, which is carried out not only by fellow Japanese, but also Japanese with non-Japanese and even among non-Japanese people living in Japan.
