茨城知事「不法就労是正は責務」　通報報奨金制度への反発受け（共同通信） - Yahoo!ニュース

This page reports on Ibaraki Prefecture's whistleblower reward system for illegal foreign workers. The prefectural bar association opposes it, claiming it breeds unfair prejudice and discrimination. However, Governor Oikawa counters that "eliminating illegal activities is an administrative responsibility." With Ibaraki having the highest number of illegal workers nationwide for four consecutive years, he emphasizes the need for effective measures. The system encourages reporting employers of illegal workers, offering rewards when prosecutions succeed. Immigration support groups and the Korean residents association also oppose it.
