Atsuo Mizayaki, a veteran systems engineer with 37 years of experience in information systems at Hitachi Ltd., said this after observing that the Philippine government has been taking a “rather passive�? stance in marketing the country’s IT activities in the Japanese market compared to the governments of China and India.
In general, the Japanese IT expert said, the technical skill level of software developers is high in the Philippines than those in China.”While China (saw the establishment of) thousands of software companies in a very short period, the reality is that the quality of its engineers has deteriorated inversely proportional to the growth of the size of its IT industry,” Mizayaki said.
“It is possible that Japanese software houses, having failed in their offshore outsourcing to China, will take a fresh look at the Philippines as alternative destination for offshore software development,” he added.
