Japanese speaking virtual assistants?

Not sure if this is the right forum for this, but...

Does anyone know of a company offering virtual / personal assistant services? Specifically, I am looking for someone to do some work for me for relatively cheaply, and they need to be able to speak Japanese and English.

There are many good virtual assistant sites with English-speaking staff like www.asksunday.com and www.yourmaninindia.com, but they don't have any Japanese speakers.

Please let me know if there are any people or companies you'd recommend.

    I used one from a company called Rush More VA based out of Kolkata. The VA was fluent and was actually a senior retiree engineer with over 9 years of experience in Japan and highly educated in the language. However they do not do translations but general VA work delivered in English. I think they are mainly suited for Japanese who can call up and expain their requirments over the phone in Japanese and expect the deliverable documents in English. The company charges a bit above the market but the experience was great. I had no problems. You can contact their sales at skype id bsonali124.

    Go to Craigslist's Tokyo page. You'll find many native English speakers looking for small jobs to do here and there. These are people who reside in Japan but foreigners proficient in Japanese.

    I just saw this via google search. I'm sure you have found someone by now, but if you ever need a Japanese speaker VA, please let me know. I'm a native Japanese speaker, have lived in the states for 16 years now.

    Have a great day!
