The first thing you have to do is to become a doctor. Once you become a doctor there are a couple of options for you, you can apply for a training fellowship in one of the hospitals or you could go there on a research grant. If you were thinking about just moving to Japan and becoming a doctor there or even going there to live and practice as a doctor I have to tell you that this would be nearly impossible.
3 :
There are very few foreign doctors in Japan. But assuming you somehow get to Japan (as a student or whatever, which is hard to do) you'll need to be able to read, write and speak Japanese FLUENTLY, PLUS know all the medical terminology in Japanese. You'll need to go to Japanese medical school and pass all the Japanese medical certifications (Japanese National Examination for Medical Practitioners) and interviews, again all in the Japanese language.
4 :
The minimum legal requirement is deceptively trivial. You just need to pass the national medical exam, and you're licensed to practice. The Japanese medical exam is only given in Japanese, and you are not allowed any translation aid. You also need to answer questions about Japanese medical laws. So it's not an easy exam to pass. It would be mean to just leave you at that and wondering what to do. There are two options. You could go to medical school at home, get your medical license there, then study Japanese intensely and get your second license in Japan. Or you could apply to medical school in Japan and get your entire medical training in Japan. If you're already determined to bury your bones in Japan, the latter might be a better option. Otherwise, it makes more sense to get your medical training in your native language and then try Japan.
5 :
Sorry, but that is just about impossible. You would need above native level Japanese just to get started. Then you would have to be accepted into a Japanese college. This will cost you over $100,000 before you're finished. Another thing to bear in mind is many Japanese wouldn't go to a non-Japanese doctor. They don't feel comfortable dealing with non -Japanese in such close situations. Sorry I sound so negative, but you have to be realistic.
6 :
Basically hopeless. Not joking. It isn't impossible, but it is basically hopeless. I've never seen a foreign doctor here. Wish there were some, but never seen one. You'll need native fluency in the Japanese language and be required to jump through lots of hoops. Basically, nobody will hire you. Your only hope is to develop native language skills and have enough money to open your own clinic. Even then, you have to attract customers. And odds are they will be going to Japanese doctors. I want to take a trip to the moon, but it is not realistic. Neither is your desire.

"you'll need to be able to read, write and speak Japanese FLUENTLY, PLUS know all the medical terminology in Japanese." Tokyoe I would imagine that it takes more than speaking ...(gasp)...FLUENT Japanese (OMGWTF) to be a doctor, a professional who sometimes makes life or death decisions, and takes on the awesome responsibility of saving people from injury or illness. Hey genius, speaking fluent Japanese is how to get a job at ファミリマート, or ガスト, not on the operating table sawing a man's chest open to remove a malignant tumor. Many foreigners including myself can speak Japanese fluently and yet we work in factories, schools, Gasuto, Family Mart, and Dry Cleaning shops. To say that makes it sound like any native Japanese person can easily become a doctor which is not the case. And by the way, Japanese is one of the easiest languages to speak. Japanese people incorrectly assume because they struggle so hard to learn English that Japanese must be nearly impossible for foreigners. It certainly is not. If it were, strippers and escorts from Russia and Moldova, and punk ass 20 year old ALT's from Australia wouldn't learn it so damn quickly. The reading and writing are more difficult, but speaking is quite easy.
8 :
I think you should take heed the advice that has already been given. I am guessing you cant speak Japanese and learning the language to an acceptable level will take time. Lets say you learn the language in 5yrs time, finding a job would be nigh on impossible. My advice is look to become a doctor in another country say U.K, Ireland, Australia, Newzealand etc. You dont have to learn the language and these countries employ foriegn doctors anually. Anywhere else, you must learn the language

No, they use a diferent model , you can only play usa game in usa playstation or any country in english.Once i rented a japanese game and it didnt work. this is just what i think

It will work, you don't need any special plugs or anything. However, you will only be able to play Japanese games from Japan. You will not be able to play any US games on it. Better to just buy one in the US if you are here. Otherwise your best bet would to buy Japanese games from amazon.co.jp or search Ebay.

Lol in all honesty you need to worry about getting the right visas and all that first. Look at the embassy's website to see if you qualify
2 :
If you have Chinese-Japanese translation capabilities, you have a good chance to get employed by big Japanese electronics companies that are doing business with rich Chinese tourists who come to Japan for shopping. Due to China's remarkable economic success for the past few years, more and more Chinese tourists (actually, they are affluent Chinese businessmen) are coming to Japan. They buy anything that are not available in China, looking for business opportunities back home (and in Japan in the future). In most cases, they come in groups led by Chinese tourist guides who are not familiar with Japanese products. Not to mention, Japanese store clerks can't speak Chinese. So, Chinese-Japanese interpreters (preferably, native Chinese) are in great demand now.
3 :
You must check with the chileans first.
4 :
You need a college degree and a job offer before you get there. IF you don't have a special job skill they need chances of finding work are zero.
5 :
do you speak japanese? japanese companies accept you as long as you have skill to make profits. but japan's economy is not as good as china,so it is not so easy to find a job. i think ,work for chinese restaurants in japan is the easiest way for chinese people.
