All major population centers are targets, unfortunately. The fear they're ramping up is designed to justify a greater police presence in higher concentration areas across the globe. I wonder if you're familiar with the elitist idea of a breakaway civilization. When one listens to the people who toss that idea around, one can get a better idea of what global elites are actually doing.

Moving from Japan is reasonable, as it's a US power which totally capitulated to Western ideals when they were bombed into near-oblivion. After that, it's less the country you move to, and more "where in it" you live, should SHTF, as the elites start to pull the plug. Living away from active bases, and large metropolitan areas is your best choice.

If you're really concerned, I recommend getting some acres in southern Montana or northern Wyoming. They aren't called "flyover states" by the regressives for nothing. Good morning though!
