Homestay in Japan?

http://www.titanplanet.net/japan_homestay.htm

I might want to consider this if I ever want to really experience Japanese culture :) Let me wait for airasia to have a flight route to Japan :D

I asked titanplanet the following questions:

a) How much do i need for this?

b) "Orientation and intensive Japanene lesson". Is this taken in Malaysia? If yes, how does it work, where to take it and how long?

c) Do you have a min pax? If i apply, am i qualified to enter even if I apply individually?

and this is their reply:
