I came to Japan in 2016.
I first started my life in Japan as a Technical Intern Training student. From that time on, the president often asked me, "Are you in any trouble?" They would also give me money to buy rice and groceries. It was easy to talk to them about things they didn't understand or were having trouble with.

What I remember most fondly is the business trip to Vietnam with the company president. I had the opportunity to visit local companies, learn about Japanese business etiquette, and gain a lot of valuable experience.

Currently, I'm in a position to train new staff and Japanese staff on-site. I sometimes find it difficult to communicate in the language, but I continue to make every effort to explain things carefully.
I want to continue living in Japan and supporting many younger generations.
