Paths and ways of your life is an unexpected
journeys, or maybe it is an expected as you wish. However, life is a little
bumpy Korra said (in avatar legend of Korra). Because it is for me.
I was live in tragic economy and graduated
with not a real super score in SMKN 4 Bandung one of Vocational Highschool in
Bandung city.
But I was be able to going overseas.
Japan is the country that I never even
imagine to step my feet and breathing on that land.
Of course I quite familiar with their Anime,
J-Pop, and their technology. Thanks for my sister for that. But really I
didn't even plan my life going to Japan before.
Not after I went to BLKLN (Indonesian
Government Working Overseas Center) and found there is a way for vocational
highschoolers that willing to working overseas could join JITCO (Japan
International Training Cooperation Organization)`s program, known as kenshuusei
(研修生) / jisshusei
(実習生) / trainee.
JITCO is helping Developing Country to
learning Technology and Japanese Culture in Japan as one of Developed Country.
My age wasn't enough yet to attend IMM JAPAN
that was require 20 year old to join (in 2011).
This program is from the official Indonesian
government cooperating with Japanese government (G2G). So they a little
more selective, because the attendees would represent Indonesian Government as
well.
After I gathering more information, there is
plenty Agency helping to Jisshusei Program with variant programs. One that I
interested is program from JIAEC that accepting attendees from 18 year old.
JIAEC is helping to attend JITCO's program
from Japanese Companies that already have branch or representative office in
Indonesia, or we can call company to company (C2C).
I applied on July 2011 when I was just
graduated from Vocational High School 4 Bandung (SMKN 4 BANDUNG) and 17 year
old. Then I was following interview 2 times (in Japanese), the 1st time I was
completely strange with Japanese Language / Nihongo (日本語) so it was not satisfying interview yet.
After that I started Japanese Language
training for Jisshusei in November, then got interview with Shibaura Shearing
Indonesia (SSI) and accepted to attending Jisshusei in Shibaura Shearing Co.
Ltd (芝浦シヤリング株式会社) in Funabashi city Office for three years.
I land in Cherry Blossom's Country in 18th
June 2012 and my journeys in Japan started to begin.
