Speaking in front of more than 200 representatives from research institutes and businesses at a recent seminar in Ehime, the ambassador said both sides will benefit from expanding co-operation.
Vietnamese counsellor in charge of investment promotion Le Huu Quang Huy outlined the favourable conditions for Japanese investors, as well as advantages such as Viet Nam’s location in the centre of Southeast Asia, an open investment environment and preferential policies, along with the fine development of Viet Nam-Japan relations.
The director of Ichihiro Company, which runs a factory in Viet Nam’s Ty Ninh province, shared his experiences in seeking locations, partners and workers in Viet Nam.
Meanwhile, the director of Tact Noda company, which receives Vietnamese trainees, said the number of trainees from Viet Nam employed by small and medium-sized businesses in Ehime increased last year despite the general downward trend in numbers of foreign trainees.
At present, 108 Vietnamese trainees are working in Ehime prefecture, he said, noting that there were still difficulties in employing Vietnamese trainees because of high recruitment costs, a language barrier and trainees’ poor understanding of industrial working culture.
Representatives from monetary and financial organisations and universities in Ehime put forth solutions to assist the prefecture’s businesses in investing in Viet Nam and training personnel.
The head of the prefecture will lead a business delegation to Viet Nam to explore the country’s investment environment and seek more Vietnamese partners.-VNS
