A number of applicants have always asked to know the difference in order to make an excellent personal statement. You can use this as a light while trying to come up with the best possible personal statement.

The first is Letter of Explanation
A letter of explanation focuses on clarification. If there is any document that might call for questioning in your application, you should back your application up with a letter of explanation. If you have been previously refused a visa, a visa officer might ask for a leetr of explanation. If there is a name change, a letter of explanation may be absolutely necessary.

LOI: Letter of Intent
A letter of intent is written as a formal declaration of your intention to study a particular course, state your reasons for aspiring to study your chosen course and type of degree, back it up with relevance references. You should write this in form of an outline.

LOM: Letter of Motivation
Letter of Motivation starts with a self introduction, an insight into your professional background and how your background factors in choosing your course and type of degree, it details your personal drive and how you intend to put this drive to use in the course of your academic pursuit.

I hope with these few points of mine, you are able to gain an understanding of the difference between these letters and how best to write them for desirable impact.

Thanks for the update. Do they pay well if one should get a part time job? Also, if you stay in Tokyo, is it compulsory that you must know the language to get a job? How easy it is for one to get visa to Australia after staying legally in Japan for like two years?

Generally speaking, knowing the language in a non-native English speaking country will put you ten steps ahead of other foreigners who don't speak the language in terms of employability especially if it is not a highly skilled job.

If you will be pursuing a PhD in Australia, then you stand a chance.
