"Foreign care workers in Taiwan and language and livelihood support"
Kazuki HIRAI
Konan University Education and Learning Support Center Bulletin ( 6 ) 1 - 19 2021.3
Single Work
Publisher：Konan University Centre for Education and Learning Support
This study outlines the circumstances surrounding Taiwan's initial acceptance of foreign workers approximately three decades ago. The government and local communities have taken the initiative to facilitate integration through the provision of language, cultural, and lifestyle support. Moreover, the article addresses social issues pertaining to foreign workers, with a particular emphasis on those who provide care for the elderly. In lieu of requiring that foreign workers master Taiwanese language and culture, the host society has instead embraced a policy of mutual linguistic and cultural learning. Non-governmental organizations have established shelters to provide emergency assistance, and the accumulated experience of three decades is being utilized in Taiwanese society, not only in terms of institutions but also in terms of the general public's high awareness of respect for foreign workers. In examining and discussing these issues, the author has endeavored to encompass not only the institutional aspects, but also the aspect of the general public's profound respect for foreign workers.

"Reflections on the life and Japanese language learning of Ritsumeikan University SKP graduates and their situation after graduation: A descriptive analysis of a follow-up survey" Reviewed
Kazuki HIRAI, Emi IMADA, Shunsuke UEDA
Ritsumeikan University Educational Development Promotion Organization Bulletin "Ritsumeikan Higher Education Research" ( 16 ) 83 - 100 2016.3
Joint Work
The Study in Kyoto Program (SKP) at Ritsumeikan University has been in operation for over two decades. During this period, the program has undergone a notable evolution in terms of both scope and content. The program was initially designed for short-term exchange students; however, it has since expanded to include privately funded students and international students majoring in English at the School of International Relations and the School of Policy Science. The specialties and interests of international students have diversified, as have the academic accommodations required, including those related to dyslexia, learning disabilities, and health and economic issues. Moreover, the backgrounds of students prior to their arrival in Japan, their academic pursuits, daily routines, social interactions, extracurricular activities, part-time employment, and experiences after returning to their countries of origin, as well as the professional concerns of students who have returned to Japan, have also become more varied. To gain a systematic understanding of these realities, three Japanese-language instructors conducted a questionnaire survey of SKP alumni using their social media connections. The survey was designed to elicit the alumni's authentic perceptions about the program, their experiences after returning home, and their experiences returning to Japan. The findings of these analyses will be utilized not only to enhance the quality of SKP, but also to counsel prospective international students who are in a position of juniority.

One might inquire as to why they are unable to speak Japanese. The issue of language is of paramount importance in understanding the challenges faced by technical interns, including incidents of disappearance, illness, and suicide. What form of Japanese language training would be most beneficial for these technical interns, who now outnumber foreign students? What is the optimal approach for trainees to adopt in dealing with these individuals? This article will elucidate the incongruities and deficiencies of the system, while examining the perspectives of relevant stakeholders in Japan and abroad. First, an examination of the current status of the technical internship system and technical trainees will be conducted, along with an investigation into the history of the acceptance of foreign workers. Additionally, an analysis of the systems and education utilized in each sending country to facilitate the arrival of these workers in Japan will be presented. Subsequently, the paper will examine the present state of Japanese language training and workplace communication at the host institutions, and will consider how future exchanges should be conducted. Furthermore, an analysis of the foreign worker admission systems of Taiwan and South Korea will be conducted, with a focus on their challenges and the implications for addressing the declining birthrate and aging population. As a special supplement, the results of an oral assessment of the Japanese language skills of technical interns will be presented, along with a discussion of the specific problems and requirements related to Japanese language skills.
