Background of Establishment
The MFI Association was founded by Mahmudi Fukumoto, an Indonesian citizen who lives and has successfully run a business, one of which is in the field of labor absorption from Indonesia to Japan. Fukumoto has long been involved in various activities that support Indonesian migrant workers (PMI) and the Indonesian community in Japan. His experience and involvement in organizing social, cultural, and sports events, such as futsal tournaments packaged in the “Futsal Tournament Keihin Cup”, became the basis for the establishment of 一般社団法人 MF Indonesia (MFI Association). This strong relationship with Indonesia is the main foundation for this organization in carrying out its mission. Through this organization, the MFI Association seeks to make a real contribution to strengthening the relationship between Indonesia and Japan, creating a positive space to support the Indonesian diaspora while living and working in Japan and providing benefits to Japan through cultural transfer, economic cooperation, and the contribution of quality workers.
