Work more than 28 hours/week as student?

I have a friend in Australia who works part time, but exceeds the /week limit. He works about 60-70 hours. I was wondering if there is a possibility of such a loophole, that a foreign student at a Japanese language school, can work more than 28 hours and not get penalized :P. Since its a cash based society, i figured one might be able to get away with it.Thanks in advance for a straight answer.

Don't get me wrong. I want to abide by the law, but due to some financial restraints, I was curious if there was some way I could accumulate some funds. Since I really want to go, but, my family can maybe support me for a few months but then I'm on my own.

In Japan you may work 28H max a week on a student visa. Even if you take two jobs the total is 28H. I believe your financial issue is not a concern of immigration. If you get caught working more than what is allowed than you risk deportation. Working 60H/70H is not a student anymore and than you are using your visa illegal than the original purpose like study.
