Hi everyone, I'm a 27-year-old from Indonesia currently planning to move to Japan through the Specified Skilled Worker (SSW) visa program to work in the construction field. I’d like to hear from anyone who has experience in this line of work — what’s life really like as a construction worker in Japan? 14.NOV.2025

Not to discourage you! But there's a reason why many residents call the Specified Skilled Worker (SSW) visa the 'slave visa'.
Japan is actively seeking cheap labour because salaries for permanent employees are insufficient. Inflation has been rising since the pandemic . I have several coworkers working as mechanics under the visa. They pay them way less. I've seen many horror stories about them being mistreated in their workplaces, even experiencing physical abuse. Japan is currently experiencing a rise in racism and xenophobia, particularly towards people from South and Southeast Asia.
Japanese work culture is a disaster in itself. Work-life balance is non-existent in many blue-collar jobs, so keep that in mind. Good luck.

'The Madam I Used to Serve'
Words taken from the 1902 novel by Shimazaki Toson.
「女主人」島崎藤村

'I'm home.' It was the guest's voice that called out. 'I've just returned.' When the voice called out twice, both of them turned around with wide eyes. There, standing silently behind them, was the master of the house. Madam didn't have time to push the man aside, so she turned away, her face turning ashen. The dentist, utterly flabbergasted, hurriedly pressed the madam's jaw with his left hand while using his right hand to extract the decayed tooth. “Long live His Majesty the Emperor! Long live!”

Wow. It's fascinating to hear how a true believer in neo-liberalism thinks. This guy is truly delusional, but he has no way of understanding that because he hangs out with equally delusional people. It was genuinely eye opening.Thanks for the interview.
