I managed to receive an answer toward my question from a care home. I sent an email with 4 questions to the care home. From the answer, the care home's Japanese staffs feel good toward the accepting the foreign care worker. Before I received the email, I expected that the Japanese staff feel worth about accepting the foreigners. It is because they have quite different culture, and they must be not able to understand Japanese perfectly. Japanese care worker must be busy even only their work of care their customers, but if they accept the care workers, they should educate the foreigners. I thought it is too hard for the Japanese staffs. However, from the answer, they think that accepting the foreigner is nice system for Japan's aging society, and also for Indonesia's future. I asked them whether they want to continue the accepting foreign care worker or not. They answered "of course Yes." They think that it is no meaning if we stop accepting. Japan is facing to serious aging society problem now. Moreover they guess that the problem keep growing in the future. To solve the problem, Japan have to depend on other countries people. They also said that, now Indonesia has no problem like aging society, but in the future, they must also face to the problem. When they facing, they want Indonesia care worker use the Japan's know-how.
I was inspired their mind. Now, care worker in Japan is shortage. It is too big problem, but I pleased to some Japanese care worker are making effort to solve the shortage.
