Reported by Anadolu Agency, on Saturday, June 22nd 2019, the missing people are suffering socio-economic problems and diseases. Quoting the Japan Times daily, the disease suffered by the missing people is mostly dementia or a decrease in the brain's ability to think.
According to police data the number of missing people whose suffering from dementia is 16,927 people. This number is a record, almost doubling since police began collecting data in 2012.

Last Tuesday, the Japanese government has approved a new program which aims to help people with dementia live more comfortably because the country estimates that there will be around 7 million elder people suffering from dementia in 2025.
