Postal conditions from Japan to the U.S.

The previous topic is gone, so I will start a new one and ask.

From last year to the first few months of this year, I was able to send a sealed letter from Japan to Southern CA by regular mail for 110 yen.
However, for a while after that, the arrival was terribly slow.
So I looked into it and found that using international EMS would be faster, so I did that.
Recently, however, I sent a letter to Southern CA again by international EMS, and it was untraceable until it left LA customs !
It has been missing for over a month now ! !

Meanwhile, a letter sent by regular mail to the East Coast on the other hand, the one I sent by regular mail to the east coast took about two weeks to arrive.
I was upset because it was an important document and I had to contact them several times.
It was a public document and the agency did not accept emails ….

After all, is the postal situation in Southern CA ( especially to LA jurisdiction ) bad ?
At any rate, I think regular mail to the East Coast will arrive, even if it takes longer.
I thought I would ask because I was worried that the sealed letter I sent out yesterday would arrive in two weeks.

It is common sense to use DHL,UPS for important documents
because it has always been the case that mail goes missing when using JP → US post office
avoid especially at the end of the year
give up!

I asked for important and urgent documents by UPS
I could send them urgently and they were delivered in 2 days from US to Japan. $ 100 charge but with military descount $ 85.
