Japan has never failed to amaze us in terms of new technology especially in the field of robotics. This time, a Robotics company called OryLab Inc., with the goal to help persons with disabilities become employed and become part of society, created a project called Robot Cafe Dawn Version Beta 2.0.
The company set up a pop-up restaurant where servers are robots. These robots are being controlled remotely by patients with ALS and SMA patients. These people who control the robots remotely are called pilots.

ALS and SMA Patients
ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) is a disease that causes the death of neurons controlling voluntary muscles while SMA (superior mesenteric artery syndrome) is a rare digestive system disorder. These patients are bedridden and unable to go out to work.
In order to put their skills to use, the CEO of OryLab Inc. paved a way to enable these people who cannot leave their homes due to their disability to become a useful part of the community.
Robot Cafe Dawn Version Beta 2.0
This Robot cafe is more than just a gimmick but is driven by a bigger goal to include patients who are bedridden to participate in society again.
The cafe is situated in Tokyo's Nihonbashi district which was launched last June, 2021.
Around 20 robots controlled by pilots serve as waiters in the cafe. The robots are called OriHime which have cameras, a microphone, and a speaker to allow operators to communicate with customers remotely. Even the barista is a robot in the cafe! The customers can freely talk to the robot controlled by pilots.

Mr. Joel San Jose, the owner of Isla Pamilya Restaurant, opened his Filipino restaurant to help fellow Filipinos fight homesickness by bringing favorite Filipino dishes to Japan. The first branch was opened in Kawasaki in 1997. His business has been running for 24 years already!
Getting to know Joel
Joel started his adventure in Japan way back in the 1980s. He’s been living in Japan for 37 years now. He also got into different jobs such as a factory worker and on site worker before he decided to open a Filipino restaurant with his wife to cater the needs of other Filipinos in Japan.
Running a business in Japan
According to Joel, it’s a bit tough running your own business in Japan compared to the Philippines because as the boss you also have to do everything yourself because getting help from others is not easy and can be costly. So, in order to save, as the owner, you have to work hands on.
Difficulties faced due to COVID-19
Joel was also forced to close his restaurant when Japan faced the first wave of the pandemic but because he had commitments and bills to pay, they decided to re-open after a few months of being closed. They just need to follow the very strict health protocols in Japan to stay afloat. Good thing the Japanese government has been very supportive to Filipinos during the pandemic so they are able to survive amidst difficulty.
Isla Pamilya Menu
Joel invites all Filipinos in Japan to satisfy their Filipino food cravings at Isla Pamilya located in Tokyo near Kamata Station. Their best sellers are Kare Kare, Dinuguan, Sisig, Crispy Pata and Lechon Kawali. Every Saturday and Sunday, they have eat-all-you-can and you can also join the Zumba dance sessions at 6PM to 8PM to burn all calories consumed during the eat-all-you-can spree.
The video documentation below is brought to you again by Delta TV. Delta Co. Ltd. is a Tokyo-based company offering assistance to Filipino workers in Japan. As the demand for foreign workers rises in the countryside, Delta aims to promote Filipino workforce to the country's rural region.

I know a lot of you are curious about how a typical day of a Filipino worker in Japan looks like. Let’s check out one of Delta TVs Youtube videos again and explore a day in a life of a Filipino worker.
In this video, we will be joining Monica, a Filipino Real Estate Agent in Tokyo. Monica arrived in Japan 3 years ago and stayed there as a student. As soon as she finished school and passed the N3 JLPT exam, DELTA helped her find a job in Japan. For those of you who are planning to explore job opportunities in Japan, DELTA is just a message away.
[embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4TRYMl97KU&t=27s[/embed]
Monica wakes up at 7 AM to prepare for her 9 AM work in the office. She eats a quick breakfast and then prepares herself for work. In Japan, Japanese usually takes a shower at night because it gets really freezing cold taking a shower in the morning. This also saves them time in their morning routine. It usually takes Monica 30 minutes to prepare.
As soon as she’s done, she goes to the nearest train station on foot. This is actually part of her daily morning exercise. She then hops on a train to reach the office. There are other transportation options in the city like bus or taxi but taking the train is the most practical. Trains also never get late in Japan so people are not worried to be late for work. From the station, Monica takes a 10-minute walk again to reach their office.
As part of Monica’s work as a real estate agent, she checks on emails to reply to customer inquiries and the likes. She also answers phone inquiries in the office. She even meets clients for ocular visits of properties. Most of their company’s clients are foreigners. She likes it because she can practice both her English and Nihongo speaking skills. She loves meeting new people, thus she enjoys her work so much!
For Monica, there are two things she definitely loves about Japan. The first is the convenient mode of transportation and the second is that there are lots of convenience stores around the city.
Monica usually spends her lunch break in a nearby Konbini (convenience store). Healthy lunch packs are available at a good price. They also enjoy a 1 hour lunch break at work same as in the Philippines.
After 8 hours of work (around 5PM), Monica heads her way home. So that’s how a day looks like for a typical Filipino office employee in Japan. It is more likely the same in the Philippines except that commuting is far more convenient in Japan!

We understand that COVID-19 has hit the entire world economy hard and it is human nature that we want to recover our losses. Since a lot of Filipinos are left jobless and are just spending most of their time on Social Media these days, enrolling in a 6-month life-changing program would be a very good decision to put boredom to work this pandemic. You must find a way to prosper during this pandemic. You don’t only learn new language and skills; you are also given the chance to go to Japan to work as an intern with pay when border restrictions are lifted. Isn’t that good news to all?
Did you know that there’s a life-changing program in the University of Perpetual Help called Quick Automotive Service Training Program that has deployed over 409 interns in Japan for over 17 years? What makes this program life-changing is that these interns work in Japan for 3 years with allowance. This does not only make these interns globally competent but this program allowed them to be financially stable at the same time.

In the past, the Chubu area has been widely known across Japan as one of the country’s biggest manufacturing centers. Despite the prevalence of factories and large manufacturing companies in the area, numerous university students in Chubu particularly in Nagoya prefer to join IT startup or pioneering companies to become entrepreneurs.
With this trend, the region has become an avenue for young entrepreneurs to start their own businesses. There has been a tremendous increase in the number of pioneer companies in the area with innovative and forefront technological products. The more established startup companies also seek to support young entrepreneurs in putting up their prospective businesses.
One of the fastest growing startup companies is the Kamejima Garage which is situated in a convenient shared or coworking space for entrepreneurs in Nagoya’s Nakamura ward. The space on the first floor of the building is intended to be used for free by cafe goers who are mostly potential entrepreneurs or students who are currently looking forward to start up their own business enterprises. Meanwhile, the second floor of the building is comprised of rental offices which startup companies may lease at a relatively lower fee.
Kenta Okumura, the head of Nagoya-based Midland Incubators which started the concept of coworking or shared office space said that “We want to establish a startup hub in Nagoya, by supporting the creation of 50 startups within three years.”
Along with other established startup companies, the firm expressed that they will continue to give business advice to entrepreneurs for them to successfully launch their own businesses and raise the necessary capital for such endeavor. Their goal is to build an entrepreneurial “ecosystem” in Chubu region whereby established companies can pass on their knowledge and skills in order to encourage the next generation of business entrepreneurs in the area.

It is with no doubt that the University of Perpetual Help has perfected crafting the career path of students enrolled in their Quick Auto Service Training Program after hearing several success stories from its interns who came back from Japan after their 3-year internship. UPH has worked hard just to get the right partners in the industry to hit the goal of their education to employment initiatives.
Currently an auto mechanic in Motech Las Pinas, Wowie Vic Casiple takes us in memory lane on how he experienced working as an auto mechanic intern in Japan.
He recalls that in his early 20s, he was one of the successful candidates who took the Quick Auto Service Training Program in UPH and was sent to Japan for internship. Wowie shared that it was not a walk in the park working in Japan. He even remembers clearly how hard it was juggling studying Nihongo while working. He was also one of the youngest interns and it took a while for him to adjust. In order to survive, he gave his 101% effort in everything he does especially in learning Nihongo and the Japanese culture.
His starting salary/allowance in Japan was 60,000 pesos. On his second year, his pay was raised to 80,000 pesos; definitely a good rate for a 20-year old newbie.
After Wowie’s 3-year intership in Japan, he was hired by Motech, the largest automotive service chain in the country. Today, at the age of 24, given his intensive training in Japan, Wowie is now more than ever determined to continue to pursue the career path that he chose to take few years back.

Japan has never failed to amaze us in terms of new technology especially in the field of robotics. This time, a Robotics company called OryLab Inc., with the goal to help persons with disabilities become employed and become part of society, created a project called Robot Cafe Dawn Version Beta 2.0.
The company set up a pop-up restaurant where servers are robots. These robots are being controlled remotely by patients with ALS and SMA patients. These people who control the robots remotely are called pilots.

ALS and SMA Patients
ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) is a disease that causes the death of neurons controlling voluntary muscles while SMA (superior mesenteric artery syndrome) is a rare digestive system disorder. These patients are bedridden and unable to go out to work.
In order to put their skills to use, the CEO of OryLab Inc. paved a way to enable these people who cannot leave their homes due to their disability to become a useful part of the community.

In the past, the Chubu area has been widely known across Japan as one of the country’s biggest manufacturing centers. Despite the prevalence of factories and large manufacturing companies in the area, numerous university students in Chubu particularly in Nagoya prefer to join IT startup or pioneering companies to become entrepreneurs.
With this trend, the region has become an avenue for young entrepreneurs to start their own businesses. There has been a tremendous increase in the number of pioneer companies in the area with innovative and forefront technological products. The more established startup companies also seek to support young entrepreneurs in putting up their prospective businesses.
One of the fastest growing startup companies is the Kamejima Garage which is situated in a convenient shared or coworking space for entrepreneurs in Nagoya’s Nakamura ward. The space on the first floor of the building is intended to be used for free by cafe goers who are mostly potential entrepreneurs or students who are currently looking forward to start up their own business enterprises. Meanwhile, the second floor of the building is comprised of rental offices which startup companies may lease at a relatively lower fee.
Kenta Okumura, the head of Nagoya-based Midland Incubators which started the concept of coworking or shared office space said that “We want to establish a startup hub in Nagoya, by supporting the creation of 50 startups within three years.”
Along with other established startup companies, the firm expressed that they will continue to give business advice to entrepreneurs for them to successfully launch their own businesses and raise the necessary capital for such endeavor. Their goal is to build an entrepreneurial “ecosystem” in Chubu region whereby established companies can pass on their knowledge and skills in order to encourage the next generation of business entrepreneurs in the area.

It is with no doubt that the University of Perpetual Help has perfected crafting the career path of students enrolled in their Quick Auto Service Training Program after hearing several success stories from its interns who came back from Japan after their 3-year internship. UPH has worked hard just to get the right partners in the industry to hit the goal of their education to employment initiatives.
Currently an auto mechanic in Motech Las Pinas, Wowie Vic Casiple takes us in memory lane on how he experienced working as an auto mechanic intern in Japan.
He recalls that in his early 20s, he was one of the successful candidates who took the Quick Auto Service Training Program in UPH and was sent to Japan for internship. Wowie shared that it was not a walk in the park working in Japan. He even remembers clearly how hard it was juggling studying Nihongo while working. He was also one of the youngest interns and it took a while for him to adjust. In order to survive, he gave his 101% effort in everything he does especially in learning Nihongo and the Japanese culture.
His starting salary/allowance in Japan was 60,000 pesos. On his second year, his pay was raised to 80,000 pesos; definitely a good rate for a 20-year old newbie.
After Wowie’s 3-year intership in Japan, he was hired by Motech, the largest automotive service chain in the country. Today, at the age of 24, given his intensive training in Japan, Wowie is now more than ever determined to continue to pursue the career path that he chose to take few years back.
