Indian engineers backbone of Japan IT indus
|

Tokyo, Nov 07: Indian system engineers have emerged
as the backbone of Japan`s IT industry and more are flocking
to the country which is witnessing a steep decline in its work
force.
Indian system engineers are making their presence felt in
Japan`s information technology industry. Around 22,000 Indians
are living in Japan at the end of 2008, nearly double the
number a decade ago.
"India is already the international standard in the IT
world," said Kenichi Yoshida, a director of Softbridge
Solutions Japan Co., a staffing company. Its founder is an
Indian-American, who set up the Japanese company in 2002.
Indian engineers are sent out to Japan after studying
Japanese language for five months. In addition to operation
and maintenance of financial information systems, they are in
charge of systems development for computers and mobile phones,
Kyodo news agency reported.
"While the number of working people is decreasing in
Japan, in India the number will continue to increase until
2040. Education levels are also high. It`s important for
Japanese industry to work together with India," Yoshida said.
His company is also providing opportunities for Japanese
engineers to undergo training in India for two to four months,
and major Japanese enterprises are taking advantage of the
service.
"Everything is in English there. They eat curry from
same bowl and return home a lot tougher," he said.
