In a country where child rapes are prevalent and in a country it is not, there of course policy difference. I agree, the Japanese policy about rape victim has lot to be desired. But at the same time Japan didn't need strict policy due to low rate of the crime.
If you want to say "Australia doesn't matter", then you REALLY have to drop it from you argument entirely and completely. It seems you are saying "Australia is like this, Japan should follow" in one post and "Australia doesn't matter" in others. Isn't 70 times higher rate of rape appalling? Seriously, for Japanese people the west or at least Australia is a country of 70 times higher rape rate.
I don't thinks Japan should follow the policy of a country that have that dreadful rate of rape. Why should she? The policy is definitely failing isn't it?

As usual you don't really read what I write. It was not about a comparison of the amount of rapes it's about the system in which women feel ok to come forward and report rapes. It used to be very hard for women to do this in the west in the past but much has been done to improve it. Thus far little appears to have been done in Japan to make it easier for women here to come forward. Did you even look at the link I provided? I could provide many more if you want. This isn't just an issue from an outsiders perspective. There are numerous groups in Japan attempting to get things improved. Total numbers of rapes are another issue altogether. Currently in Japan though the numbers are barely known as so few are reported.
