Another strange thing was I had a Chinese girlfriend (she was a Japanese citizen though) who had a school. One of the Japanese students got angry at a teacher and reported to the police that my girlfriend allowed students to sell used costumes to each other (my girlfriend didn't know about it). A policeman called my girlfriend and told her she needed a permit to sell used items. She agreed to come and get one but was told that there was a test involved and since she was a foreigner (she is fluent in Japanese) she had to send an employee (Japanese) instead. She did and got the permit. Strange thinking.
Nothing has changed..

I was fingerprinted when I was pulled over by the police on my scooter.

Apparantly, the police would not fingerprint a national local.
