PPL in Japan?

Hello,

I am going to move to Japan in 2 or 3 months. I don't have my PPL now but I was considering starting soon.

I was wondering, is it hard to start a PPL there as a foreigner? I have heard it's much more expensive than in other countries (lot of japanese people go oversea to do it), what should I expect?
Any cheap aeroclub good for foreigner that you know?

I was also hesitating about starting training in France during the two months before going there (JAA), but it depends if hours are transferable (I doubt I can have it in 2 months), and how complicated/expensive it is for foreigner to do it fully in Japan.

Any advice is greatly appreciated, it's hard for me to dig site in Japanese.

Thanks
