【Job Type】 Framing construction work

What made me happiest when I came to Japan was how kind the company president and my senior colleagues were. When I caught a cold and had a fever, I called someone from the company, and they immediately came to my apartment and took me to the hospital. I was so grateful for that.

I still want to work in Japan where there are such kind people, so I became a Specified Skilled Worker (i) in 2022.
In the future, I would like to create a company like "Tezuka Corporation" in Indonesia. For that reason, I want to learn more about my work and become a craftsman with high technical skills.

Japan has so many beautiful things. I think cherry blossoms and fireworks are truly beautiful no matter how many times you see them.
Climbing Mount Fuji is also one of my cherished memories.
