Background and Purpose of Joint Venture
In November 2016, Magsaysay People Resources Corporation and Human Academy Co., 
Ltd., a Human Holdings Co., Ltd. subsidiary, entered into a partnership in the 
Philippines to deliver high-level Japanese education to Filipinos planning to 
work in Japan. The establishment of the new company will pave the way for 
further future business growth.

Besides expanding Japanese-language education in the Philippines, the new 
company will work to implement custom programs for Japanese-language training, 
focusing on specific industries. As a result, students at the Magsaysay Human 
Language Institute will acquire necessary communication skills for each 
relevant industry in Japan.

As the Japanese population further decreases, this enterprise will be well 
positioned to contribute to solving this serious issue. As such, the Human 
Group plans to expand this business while also developing other language 
education businesses in the Philippines, such as English.
