I guess it was a bit of an eye-opener then. This gradual cut-back on wages/benefits has been going on for years. Pretty soon, much is going to be outsourced to the Philippines. In fact a number of schools is already using Skype-based Filipinas/Filipinos instead of employing foreign ALTS, and it is only going to increase in the future.
I know a private elementary school south fukuoka that has mostly teachers from Philippines, but advertise as their teachers are native speakers.
