JICA President Akihiko Tanaka met with Dao Ngoc Dung, Minister of Labor, Wounded and Sick Soldiers, and Social Affairs of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, at JICA Headquarters on September 6.
At the beginning of the meeting, President Tanaka referred to the revision of Vietnam’s law on overseas worker dispatch, and expressed his hope that the law would be properly implemented in Vietnam, which is the largest exporter of technical intern trainees to Japan. He also expressed his willingness to work actively on a new technical cooperation project, which is scheduled to be implemented based on an agreement between the two governments, with the aim of promoting overseas employment by strengthening compliance with laws and regulations.
In response, Minister Dung expressed his gratitude for JICA’s cooperation and expressed his hope for the early implementation of the project, noting the importance of providing appropriate information to Vietnamese applicants for overseas employment and job assistance after their return to their home countries. He also expressed his belief in the importance of prior training for those who wish to work in Japan to ensure their smooth employment in Japan.
President Tanaka noted that Vietnamese applicants for overseas employment in Japan contribute significantly to Japan’s economic activities and are beginning to make further contributions to the Vietnamese economy upon their return to their home country. The two sides confirmed that the appropriate sending and receiving of overseas work applicants play an important role in the socioeconomic development of both countries and are mutually beneficial.
