Budhathoki Samjhana, a restaurant owner and business manager visa holder at Chitwan Rhino Restaurant and Bar, checks receipts at her bar in the OkuboShin area, one stop north of Shinjuku, in Tokyo on June 12, 2026, a neighbourhood known for its large immigrant communities, including Korean, Southeast Asian and South Asian residents.
