Whether conditions in China for those who are able to study abroad are less problematic or whether the situation in Japan is more critical and constrained is hard to decipher.
Both countries value highly the role of education and traditionally families from both nations put away money towards their children's education.
One aspect not mentioned so far is how influential will the role of new technologies be on reducing costs for learning?
Many insiders have been speculating as to the role of new web-enabled mobile devices and whether such technology will serve to bring down the price of learning.
Already we are seeing a huge growth in online learning and an acceptance from employers for qualifications obtained online. Such education delivery saves costs and makes competition between schools and colleges, both at home and abroad, more vibrant.
Looking further afield, perhaps some time in the not so distant future, more students will be using their mp4's and Ipod's and Iphones to download lessons, as is now seen with foreigners trying to learn Chinese who use "Chinese Pod" a company based out in Shanghai, paying a fraction of the cost of traditional 'in classroom' lessons.
On the move, more engaging and customized for the consumer, the future of education is continually evolving.
Place this alongside the current climate where governments, companies and families are cutting back on spending and maybe we will see more affordability in the future for learning with profits less easy to come by for past education giants who appeared to have a monopoly in certain markets.
