Cao Van Sam, Deputy Head of the General Department of Vocational Training under the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs and Deputy Head of the competition’s Organising Board, said all contestants strictly complied with the regulations and rules.
There were no big differences in qualifications among the contestants, who were required to compete fiercely with their rivals to win medals.
Vietnam was committed to organise the event in an impressive and just manner so results were evaluated by a council comprising representatives of all member countries, Sam said.
The final results have not yet been announced, however, Vietnamese contestants at traditional skills like industry, construction, restaurant services performed in a manner consistent with previous competitions, Sam added.
New skills like welding, for which Vietnamese contestants have been weak, showed significant progress this year. This is attributed to changes in improved vocational training in recent years.
Training units closely coordinate with businesses to meet demands of both businesses and labour market, Sam concluded.
The closing and awards ceremony of the competition will be held on October 28.
