(VOV) -The first Japanese eloquence contest was held in the northern port city of Haiphong on October 12, by the municipal People’s Committee in coordination with the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA).
The event was part of activities to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Vietnam-Japan diplomatic ties (1973-2013).
Twelve most outstanding candidates from universities and joint venture companies took part in the contest, which focused on bilateral ties, as well as work and the daily lives of Vietnamese people in Japan.
They competed in five-minute presentations and Q&A sessions, and were judged on their ability to use the language, the content they present, and the impression they make on the jury.
La Quang Tien from Haiphong private university won first prize, followed by Doan Trong Luc from a ship design and training centre and Kim Duyen from Bridgestone tyre manufacturing company.
The contest aimed to create a good opportunity for Vietnamese students and employees to improve their Japanese language skills and help locals gain a better understanding about Japanese people and culture.
