Handing over 100,000 yen to a foreign student in distress due to the influence of the new Corona

A Japanese woman in Tokyo who learned that an international student who graduated from a Japanese language school because of the influence of the new coronavirus is unable to return to Japan and is in need of life, a 100,000 yen cash to be paid by the government I handed it to.

A Japanese woman in Arakawa Ward, Tokyo, visited a Japanese school in Arakawa Ward on the 21st, a woman in her 40s living nearby, handed over 100,000 yen in cash and food such as bread to Colombian Carlos Duque (28).

Although Mr. Duque graduated from a Japanese language school in March this year, he was unable to return home or work part-time due to the spread of the new coronavirus and was suffering from life, but his student visa expired and he got a short-term visa. It means that I learned from the NHK news that it is not covered by the government benefits because it became.

Although 100,000 yen has not been paid to women yet, I prepared cash ahead of schedule in order to support as soon as possible.

Duque was able to withstand the savings he had saved as a part-time job and the money that his mother in Colombia borrowed and remitted, but he was at a loss because he could not pay the rent of 40,000 yen next month.

Mr. Duque said, "I'm really happy that there are people who can help me in Japan. When I return to my home country, I want to tell my family and friends about this."

The woman said, "I can't fly home because I can't fly, and I can't work, so I'm in a mentally tough situation, but I want you to do your best."

Tokori Arai, the president of the Japanese language school, said, "I think foreigners like Duque are in the same situation as refugees are in a way. I want to call for help. "
