He mentioned Toyota. And it seems relevant to recognize that Toyota has still been able to put out a quality reasonably priced product, despite Japan having a high cost structure. Also, he didn't mention this, but Japan recently doubled its yearly quota for guest workers to 820,000. The key difference from the US, etc., being that these workers are guests and they are in Japan to work. So maybe it would be possible to turn things around at Boeing and return to the glory days as he implies, but I don't think that will happen.

The Japanese government has added four new industries to the Specified Skilled Worker visa program, totaling 16. The newly added sectors are:
Road
Railway Transportation
Forestry
Timber Industries
Factors affecting the skilled worker visa program
The list of a few factors affecting the visa program is given below:
Increased Visa Targets
The Japanese government plans to welcome 820,000 skilled foreign workers under its visa program.
Streamlining Admission Process
The government plans to revise a few regulations, aiming to enable the immediate acceptance of skilled foreign workers to the newly added sectors.

South Korea has the same system for 3rd world migrants. Maximun stay: five years. The bar for employment in Japan is extremely high. DEI is a non-starter over here.
Some migrants marry downtrodden local women and get permanent visa status.
