Vietnamese Deputy Minister of Construction Bui Pham Khanh and Japanese Deputy Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Kazuhiko Aoki signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on developing human resources in the construction sector in Tokyo on April 16.
According to the MoU, the two sides will cooperate to improve the quality of technique training programmes for Vietnamese construction workers.
Vietnam will be one of the three countries to receive 10.8 million JPY (90,000 USD) annually to develop human resources in the field, in effect until 2021.
It forms part of the MoU in urban building and development cooperation between the two countries signed in January.
Currently, Japan plans to expand practical training schemes for overseas workers due to a shortage of construction labourers to meet an expected building boom ahead of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
