According to Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Lu Quang Ngoi, the event offered opportunities to introduce Vinh Long’s human resources, and Niigata’s demand for labour force, recruitment standards for different industries, and training for migrant workers.
Throughout 14 booths arranged within the framework of the conference, Niigata businesses and education establishments gave consultancy regarding curricula and working programmes to Vinh Long workers and students.
Ngoi expressed his hope that the Niigata administration and related enterprises will continue creating favourable conditions for more Vinh Long labourers to study and work in Japan.
Relevant sectors, localities and businesses of Vinh Long province should develop high-quality human resources to meet the stringent requirements of foreign employers, including Japan and Niigata in particular, he said, adding they should step up communications work to popularise the Japanese culture to promote mutual understanding and cooperation between the two sides.
Attending the event, Niigata prefecture governor Hanazumi Hideyo said as Vinh Long and Niigata share similarities in their agricultural strengths, young labourers from the Vietnamese province will better adapt to the working environment in Japan.
He said he hopes to welcome more Vinh Long youths to study and work in the prefecture.
