Hello Gayathri,

Congratulations!!

Nice to hear from you. I would be more than
willing to help you out. I am currently in Taiwan. What all written
information is relevant I have posted on the website. Please do give
me a call and we can chat over it. Email me and we can setup a time to
talk on the weekends.

There are other Hindu-Hitachi scholars and
there is an Orkut community also whom you can talk to. Its better to
gather as much info as possible.

HI,

Thanks for your encouraging reply. Please send me the link to the
website in which you have given details. I couldnt get to the link
about the experience of past scholars- got only the list of past
scholars.

Currently I am in the stage of processing the documents- i.e. Filling
up the contract, travel insurance etc.Could you help me out in this -
give some tips or suggestions- anything is welcome.

Also I have found the following in the list of Documents to be sent
link of the website:

"A Security Bond of Rs 35000/- in case of misconduct by the candidate.
" - Could you elaborate on this. Is this the compensation we need to
pay if we leave the training inbetween? Please explain.

Also Do we have to work for HITACHI after the training- some
obligatory term of service?

Ill be very pleased to get acquainted with you. Can you spare next
weekend- Saturday/Sunday. Please let me know.

regards

Gayathri

Yes, sure. Do give me a call. My Taiwan cell number is:

+866-9-36797134

or we can setup a time and voice-chat. I am available mostly after 7
30 PM India time.

don't worry about the bond. Just make it. It is case, you make a crime
or something security breach in japan. Its just a safety measure.You
don't need to deposit that amount. Just a bank statement showing that
you have it.

No Obligation to work for Hitachi or something like that.

Thank you for the fast reply.

Ya, I have been to the website (maintained by you !! - really
appreciate your effort). But details specific to the actual work/
training were not available. I am little curious about that part. Will
call you on weekend on the number you have given.

Now, about me...am a self employed professional... an Electronics and
Communication graduate form CUSAT. We are currently into LED Lighting
Systems and to activities like electronics contract manufacturing,
product design etc.. Just started a couple of years ago and still in
the startup phase.
