FYI-
MyNumber, gagamitin for tax & social insurance contribution payment confirmation ng mga foreigner for visa approval

Ayon sa news na ito, gagawa ng isang network system ang Japan government upang mai-share ng mabilisan ang mga data ng foreigner particularly sa tax payment and social insurance monthly contribution status na madaling ma-access ng immigration office.

Ang MyNumber ang syang gagamitin nila to access the data ng bawat foreigner applying for visa renewal or extension upang malaman agad kung meron silang mga unpaid tax at monthly contribution sa pension at health insurance.

Doing this, madaling makakapag-decide ang immigration kung nararapat bang aprobahan ang kanyang visa application o hindi. Nais nilang matapos agad ang system na ito at umpisahan ang bagong policy na ito by year 2027.

Opinion: Kapag nagawa na ang network system at naumpisahan na ang implementation, I think marami ang maaapektuhang foreigners living in Japan sa ngayon. Bilang advise lamang po, better to pay all your unpaid contribution sa health insurance at pension sa ngayon kung nais nyong magpatuloy pa ding manirahan dito sa Japan.

Japan has announced plans to dramatically raise foreign residency fees to levels similar to the US and UK.

Under the proposal, visa renewals that currently cost 6,000 yen will jump to 30,000 to 40,000 yen.

Permanent residency applications, now 10,000 yen, will skyrocket to more than 100,000 yen.

The government says the extra money will fund immigration inspections, Japanese-language programs, and deportations of overstayers.

Officials argue that fees must match “Western standards,” despite Japan’s far lower salaries and far stricter visa rules.

Foreign residents online immediately criticized the plan, saying Japan is punishing workers who keep the economy running.

Many noted that conbini, restaurants, factories, and care homes already rely heavily on foreign labor due to Japan’s shrinking population.

If passed, the changes could take effect in FY2026 after a Diet amendment—the first such increase since 1981.

“💔 Sa isang iglap lang, gumuho ang malaking bahay na. ilang taon kong pinaghirapan abroad! 🏚️😢

Ilang taon akong nagsakripisyo sa malayo—nagtrabaho, tiniis ang lungkot, pinasan ang pagod—para lang makapag-ipon at maipatayo ang bahay na pinapangarap ng pamilya ko. 🏠
Ang laki ng bahay, ang tibay ng pagkakagawa… pero isang lindol lang, parang wala na lahat. 😭

Nakakapanlumo isipin… lahat ng pawis, luha, at taon ng pagsusumikap sa abroad, isang iglap lang nawala. Hindi ko alam kung iiyak na lang ba ako o tatanggapin na may mga bagay talaga sa buhay na hindi hawak ng tao. 😔

👉 Kaya bago ka magplano o magpundar, basahin mo ’to… dahil baka ikaw na ang susunod na makaramdam ng sakit na ganito.
Dahil sa huli, lahat ng bagay—bahay, pera, ganda, kasikatan—mawawala rin. Ang tunay na kayamanan ay yung buhay na may pananampalataya at pagmamahal sa Diyos at kapwa. 🙏”

✈️💔 𝑺𝒉𝒆 𝒘𝒂𝒔 𝒔𝒖𝒑𝒑𝒐𝒔𝒆𝒅 𝒕𝒐 𝒈𝒐 𝒉𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒕𝒐𝒅𝒂𝒚…OFW From kuwait - possibly Flight From Kuwait-Japan- Manila -Cebu to Dumaguete Landtrip— 𝒔𝒉𝒆 𝒘𝒂𝒔 𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒚 𝒎𝒊𝒍𝒆𝒔 𝒂𝒘𝒂𝒚 𝒇𝒓𝒐𝒎 𝒉𝒐𝒎𝒆, 𝒃𝒖𝒕 𝒏𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓 𝒎𝒂𝒅𝒆 𝒊𝒕.

But instead of a joyful reunion, her family received the most painful surprise of all.
𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐦𝐚 𝐀𝐮𝐳𝐚 — an OFW who had just arrived from Japan — was so close to finally being home. She boarded a bus from Cebu, just a few miles away from her hometown, excited to surprise her loved ones.

But she never made it. 💔
She died on that bus. Alone. Of cardiac arrest.

🕯️ Her luggage was filled with gifts... but her body carried the weight of years of sacrifice.
𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐭𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝. 𝐓𝐨𝐨 𝐭𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝.
And no one knew how close she was to breaking down — not from weakness, but from giving too much of herself to everyone but herself.

💡 𝐑𝐄𝐅𝐋𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐔𝐒 𝐀𝐋𝐋:
📌 To our OFWs:
𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐞, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐬𝐨 𝐡𝐮𝐦𝐚𝐧.
Please listen to your body. Take care of your health. Rest is not selfish — it’s survival.

📌 To families waiting at home:
𝐃𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞.
Check on them even while they’re away. Ask how they’re doing. Insist on medical checkups. Remind them they matter — not just for what they give, but for who they are.

📌 To all of us chasing dreams:
𝐃𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬.
Coming home alive is more important than bringing pasalubong.

👣 𝑾𝒊𝒍𝒎𝒂 𝒘𝒂𝒔 𝒔𝒖𝒑𝒑𝒐𝒔𝒆𝒅 𝒕𝒐 𝒔𝒖𝒓𝒑𝒓𝒊𝒔𝒆 𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝒇𝒂𝒎𝒊𝒍𝒚...
But the surprise became grief.
The excitement turned to mourning.
💔🕊️
𝐓𝐨 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐦𝐚 𝐀𝐮𝐳𝐚,
Your story is heartbreaking, but your life will not be forgotten.
You gave everything — even your last breath — for the people you love.
May your story awaken the hearts of many. May you rest in peace, our modern-day hero.

In most countries, a 35-second delay would barely register. But in Japan, where punctuality is a national value, it's taken seriously—even on the lightning-fast Shinkansen bullet trains. When one train was delayed by just 35 seconds, the conductor issued a formal apology, and every passenger received a full fare refund as a gesture of respect and accountability.

This incident isn’t isolated—Japan’s rail system is world-famous for its near-perfect precision. The average delay for the Shinkansen is under 1 minute annually. Such discipline not only reflects efficiency, but also deep cultural reverence for others’ time—a principle that has made Japanese trains the global gold standard for reliability.

Tsunami hits Northern Japan after Russia quake

NEWS UPDATE: A 30-centimeter (1-foot) tsunami wave reached Japan’s northern island of Hokkaido after a powerful offshore earthquake near Russia’s far east, public broadcaster NHK reported Tuesday.

Japan’s weather agency warned that larger waves—up to 3 meters (10 feet)—could follow along northern and eastern coasts as far south as Wakayama. | Picture taken by a Miyako City official on 11 March 2011/AFP
