• Most 3-year Diploma / 4-year Bachelor Nursing graduates expect their work to be in line
with their educational background (they want to be nurses)

 Why Japan? Why not Japan?

Why they choose Japan?

• Sufficient salary
• Information in the terms and conditions of employment is reliable
• TITP is good system (e.g. supervising organizations monitor and help them when they
have problems)
• Familiarity with Japanese culture through anime, TV dramas, etc.
• Good public safety

Why they don’t choose Japan?

• Japan is still not well known.
• Learning Japanese is hard.

Others
- So far, Indonesian caregivers have been concentrated in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Malaysia
and the Middle East / Saudi Arabia, so that the image of working as a caregiver is at the
same time as a housekeeper and living in the employer's house.
- When we explain that the concept of caregiving in Japan is the same as in Indonesia,
with normal working hours, plenty of days off, and going back to their respective homes
after work each day, the majority of people dream of working or interning in Japan.

 Messages for Japanese Side

• If there is more need from the Japanese side, we can send more human resources for
caregiving from Indonesia.

• If the Japanese side accepts people over 30 years old, the possibilities will be expanded.

• Regular business matching between sending organizations and accepting organizations

(e.g. once a month) through an online discussion forum, with a 10-minute presentation
opportunity for each sending organization.

• A special forum should be created in which sending organizations that specialize in

KAIGO and accepting organizations that need caregivers.

• Better to have a special place on the Website for Caregiver Job Supply & Demand
Details.

• Publicize the huge potential of caregiver candidates in Indonesia to Japanese elderly care
service providers in Japan
