MANILA, Philippines—Japan should “open up” to the world once more, including to more non-Japanese nurses, Japan’s Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama said in a speech during the Sixteenth International Conference on the Future of Asia hosted by the Nihon Keizai Shimbun on May 20.

“We should increase the numbers of non-Japanese nurses in Japan and consider ways to enable them to help their compatriots here when required as nurses who speak the same mother tongues,” Hatoyama said.

“And in order that the family members of non-Japanese persons in Japan can receive the right education with peace of mind, we will develop educational facilities and enhance Japanese language educational institutions in the country,” he added.

Hatoyama’s statement came two weeks after 116 Filipino nurses and caregivers flew to Japan last May 9 under the Japan-Philippines Economic Partnership Agreement (JPEPA).

Do you want to migrate to Canada but dont know where to start?
I suggest you checkout Canada's official website "Immigrate to Canada" I have alot of friends who have gone to this site and have left already. From what I have heard, in less than 5 months, they will already require you to have your medical checkups. They dont even suggest that you go to these agencies because they will only get your money. Best way is to use this http://www.cic.gc.ca/ . Go direct!

Right now with the current retrogression, I think its a long shot if you really plan on going to the USA. I think it would be better to migrate to canada or other countries.
