This app was released in store in August. Currently, it is distributed to foreign guests come to Japan centering on the surrounding area of company and friends' guest houses, but even when Japanese people travel abroad, they will be able to read unreadable menus!

Of course everything is free! We update every week, so please download it if you like!


Tokyo is cold today! The weather forecast said it might snow in Tokyo on weekends! Yesterday I was present at the guest house check-in of an acquaintance, but when I told the guests from Thailand that it would snow on the weekends, everyone was glad with a sparkling eye!



Well, this time I will tell you about Japanese education and the future noticed by a family from Malaysia!

I am divorced and live away, but now I have a 10-year-old son. So I think about education as a personal matter, not as a human resource.

I hope that as many Japanese adults as possible will realize the true situation and create the future of our precious children together!

Words are unnecessary for boys' play!

Dalia family who came from Malaysia and stayed for 10 days. Naughty two sons are 4 and 2 years old. The lower child was still diapering.

My little boy was five years older than my brother's, but words don't needed to play with each other.

As you can see, even if didn't understand the language, you could play with toys together, or just have fun on the futon!

Default differences

This is Amri, younger than my boy 1 year old . He was a friendly but firm brother who played well with my little boy every day.

The only difference is that he can speak both Malay and English.

They are like a family trip to Japan, so they are definitely not poor families. But when I ask Dalia, Malaysia is a country with many ethnicities, such as Malay, Indian, and Chinese, so it's natural to study both Malay and English at school.

And they were talking in English in their family's daily conversation too!

Japan starts English classes from elementary school too, but it is absolutely meaningless. There is no reason why children who cannot speak Japanese properly can speak English!

What's more, it's absolutely impossible to speak English which is only used in textbooks during class with curiosity!

The world where they will live in 10 years

A Malaysian who has a daily conversation in English before going to elementary school and a Japanese who can only say "Hello, Thank you, Good bye".

When you are a child, you can play together even if there are no words. But what if you think about the business world where they will live in 10 years?

I felt, “Never, my little boy won't win the Malaysian Amri”. Because just having a daily conversation in English will expand your business potential around the world.

Moreover, even now, the internet world has no borders. Maybe someone has developed a door anywhere, and in 10 years the barriers to movement may have gone away!

If that happens, Japan's superiority will disappear, and Japanese children who can speak only Japanese will be left behind.

I can't do anything by myself. But I don't want to have a future where I can grow up with a foreigner / English complex like Showa Japanese. As the responsibility of parents with children.

Intercultural communication life continues! !

Since Dalia is connected to Facebook, Amri and others are also watching from time to time. Although he looks taller, he may be studying Chinese in addition to Malay / English! ?

This time, I introduced the world and Japanese education and the future that I felt through Amri in Malaysian.

What will be next time! ? I'll introduce interesting guests while watching old photos!

See you! Have a nice weekend!
