Oz, they speak English. Been to South Korea, language barrier unless you are fluent in Korean.
Work-related ba ang iyong relocation/(migration)?
Just wondering why Thailand or South Korea, as regular Filipinos do not speak their language?

pag sinabing migration, permanent resident ka na sa country na yan.
australia na.
& why thailand or korea?![]()
I have a couple of buddies who moved to New Zealand. They seem to really like it there.

Japan will be a challenge if you can’t speak Nihonggo. They’re very conservative towards foreigners working there that can’t speak their language.
I know basic Japanese and I still find it difficult to converse with the locals.

Agree.
Visiting as a tourist I think okay lang pero if you will settle na talaga dun? Language, reading and writing (eto daw madugo) is a must. They will not adjust for you.
BTT
Almost all na kilala ko na nag migrate is Australia / Canada bound.

The language itself is hard to master. You should be able to memorize at least 3,000 kanjis (chinese characters) just to be considered as literate. There are also different "levels" of the language depending on whether you are talking to a child/pet, your peers, your boss, the head of the company, the PM, and the emperor.
Even natives have to sometimes guess the meaning of kanji characters based on context. Some can't even transact business because they do not know business Japanese.
Correct me if I'm wrong but AFAIK it's impossible to gain citizen status. Marrying a native doesn't automatically make you a Japanese citizen.
I notice kids of Pinays and Japanese men tend to be aloof to the point of avoiding fellow Pinoys and suppressing/denying their heritage.
I think you are already N1-level if you memorized 3,000 characters, even my Japanese language teacher can only read 5,000 and write 3,000, very few can read beyond that, especially the old original Chinese characters used in Buddhist temples and texts. Thats because modern Japanese kanji has already been simplified from the original Chinese. If you can read and perhaps write 300 kanji, you already have the equivalent of a high school student proficiency. Thats enough for part-time work.
Its possible to gain citizenship, but it takes a loooooong time, and a lot of tests. Being born in Japan does not automatically give citizenship too (my son is still Pinoy), hindi kasi sila jus soli, but jus sanguini (if you can prove you have Japanese blood or ancestor automatic citizen ka).
I have worked in Japan.
- We wore suits.
- Trains do get crowded. People are squeezed against each other like sardines.
- Our Japanese manager is first to arrive at the office and is the last to leave. That is leadership by example. Not like my bosses in the Philippines where they arrive late and are the first to leave.
- The Japanese leave their personalities at home. Wala masyadong kuwentuhan sa office. Kung anong seating position namin at the start to the day (hunched over our desks), ganoon din at the end of the day.
- We worked long hours.
- Mahirap mag communicate. Barbers and taxi drivers do not speak English. I tried to tell the barber how I'd like my hair to be cut and he said, "Wakaranai (I don't understand)."
- Japan is a beautiful country. Even small streets are very orderly.
from my nippon acquaintance,
"japanese government is rich. japanese citizens are not."
