Vietnamese High-quality labourers to be exported to Japan
September 12, 2012 | Talk Vietnam

Since early September, the Overseas Labour Management Department under the Ministry of Labour, War-Invalids and Social Affairs has seen a great number of candidate profiles for nurses to be sent to work in Japan, said Mr. Le Van Thanh, deputy head of the department.
According to Mr. Thanh, this is a program in which high-quality labourers will be sent to work in Japan, earning attractive salaries of 35-40 million VND per month (1.678-1.918 US dollars); therefore, it has attracted great attention from labourers.
Candidates have to satisfy requirements relating to the medical profession, work experience and foreign languages.
Those who satisfy professional standards will be given a free-of-charge Japanese language training programme within 12 months in Vietnam. Their Japanese language ability will be tested in a contest held by the Japan Foundation.
After being sent to work in Japan, labourers will have the chance to study while working to obtain a Japanese nursing certificate. If they succeed in getting the certificate, they will be allowed to work long term in Japan./.

That's why I said it in the first place, a Union between 2 country is extremely impossible we're talking about 2 completely different culture. I believe the same thing as you are a closer cooperation between Japan-Vietnam is more plausible than a union

Below is a more clearer picture from the japanese project. The Japanese should feel as if they were at home in Japan.
Dream town: An illustration depicts a Tokyu Corp. development in Binh Duong, Vietnam.
Railway operator and real estate developer Tokyu Corp. will construct high-rises for 1,500 households by 2014, as well as other homes, office buildings, schools and commercial complexes on a total of 110 hectares by 2020.
Each high-rise unit will be priced at ¥8 million to ¥12 million, targeting corporate executives and Japanese working in a nearby industrial zone where about 100 Japanese companies operate.

Vietnam car engine factory
By Adam Westlake / October 23, 2012 / No Comments
Japanese car manufacturer Mazda is said to have plans to build a new factory in Vietnam that will produce car engines, along with a total investment of roughly $600 million. The Vietnam Investment Review says Mazda has been communicating with local authorities on where the best location would be for the engine factory. The newspaper’s sources say Ha Noi or one of its neighboring provinces are currently being looked at.
Vina-Mazda opened a new factory last October for the assembly of the manufacturer’s sedans in Quang Ngai province. That plant came with an investment of $33.7 million and is predicted to have an output of 20,000 vehicles per year by 2016. Should a new engine factory be added to the mix, it would not only help Mazda with domestic production, but help Vietnam actually develop an automobile manufacturing industry. Until now, joint ventures have only imported various parts in order to assemble cars within the country.
Vietnam’s Deputy Prime Minister Hoang Trung Hai has said that the country’s national strategies involve prioritizing the manufacturing of mechanical products that can be used in production around the world, as well as help develop domestic industries. While a business development like this a little too far along to be related to Japan’s territorial dispute with China, a move to Vietnam like this could serve as a precursor for manufacturing industries. It’s been mentioned before that several Southeast Asian countries, including Cambodia and Vietnam, would be places where Japanese companies could relocate their manufacturing to reduce the reliance on Chinese labor.

Huh?
You're not past that threshold of 'no return', I hope.
I have to tell you one thing though: I'm glad I'm not a Viet otherwise, the way you're shamelessly selling your countrymen, I wouldn't know where I can hide my face. I wonder how some of your proud compatriots like 5star and Niceguy feel about the way you go about this.
LOL they have no choice buddy but to shine shoes and kiss rich nations assss

Vietnam targets a million Japanese travellers in 2015
Posted On Oct 22 2012 | By admin
Vietnam is keen to welcome a million tourists from Japan, targeting 2015 to achieve its goal. Japan is currently the third largest market of Vietnam’s tourism after China and South Korea, and Vietnam is offering visa-free entry for Japanese passport holders for stays of no more than 15 days.
The Vietnam National Administration of Tourism (VNAT) and travel firms are organizing a number of tourism promotion programs and road shows in Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto. Besides, Vietnam has been present at JATA Tourism Forum & Travel Showcase 2012 and will continue working with the Vietnam-Japan Tourism Cooperation Committee on specific promotion activities.
The Vietnam Festival 2012 in Japan was held in Tokyo by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Vietnamese Embassy in Japan and relevant agencies of the two countries. “We are performing several activities in Japan and have officially kicked off the campaign of attracting one million Japanese tourist arrivals to Vietnam in 2015,” Nguyen Van Tuan, head of VNAT, told recently to reporters of the Saigon Daily.
Japan is currently the third largest market of Vietnam’s tourism after China and South Korea, and Vietnam is offering visa-free entry for Japanese passport holders for stays of no more than 15 days. They were nearly 482,000 Japan tourist arrivals in Vietnam last year, up 8.9% from the previous year. Meanwhile, the number in the year’s first eight months was over 376,000 arrivals, or a rise of 18.9% from the same period last year.

Letter from Fukushima: A Vietnamese-Japanese Police Officer’s Account
New America Media, First Person, Ha Minh Thanh, Posted: Mar 19, 2011
Editor’s note: This letter, written by a Vietnamese immigrant working in Fukishima as a policeman to a friend in Vietnam, has been circulating on Facebook among the Vietnamese diaspora. It is an extraordinary testimony to the strength and dignity of the Japanese spirit, and an interesting slice of life near the epicenter of Japan’s current crisis, the Fukushima nuclear power plant. It was translated by NAM editor, Andrew Lam, author of East Eats West: Writing in Two Hemispheres. His first book, Perfume Dreams, Reflections on the Vietnamese DIaspora won a 2006 Pen Award.
Brother,
How are you and your family? These last few days, everything was in chaos. When I close my eyes, I see dead bodies. When I open my eyes, I also see dead bodies. Each one of us must work 20 hours a day, yet I wish there were 48 hours in the day, so that we could continue helping and rescuing folks.
We are without water and electricity, and food rations are near zero. We barely manage to move refugees before there are new orders to move them elsewhere.
I am currently in Fukushima, about 25 kilometers away from the nuclear power plant. I have so much to tell you that if I could write it all down, it would surely turn into a novel about human relationships and behaviors during times of crisis.
The other day I ran into a Vietnamese-American. His name is Toan. He is an engineer working at the Fukushima 1 nuclear plant, and he was wounded right at the beginning, when the earthquake struck. With the chaos that ensued, no one helped him communicate with his family. When I ran into him I contacted the US embassy, and I have to admit that I admire the Americans’ swift action: They sent a helicopter immediately to the hospital and took him to their military base.
But the foreign students from Vietnam are not so lucky. I still haven't received news of them. If there were exact names and addresses of where they work and so on, it would be easier to discover their fate. In Japan, the police do not keep accurate residential information the way they do in Vietnam, and privacy law here makes it even more difficult to find.
I met a Japanese woman who was working with seven Vietnamese women, all here as foreign students. Their work place is only 3 kilometers from the ocean and she said that they don’t really understand Japanese. When she fled, the students followed her, but when she checked back they were gone. Now she doesn't know if they managed to survive. She remembers one woman’s name: Nguyen thi Huyen (or Hien).
No representatives from the Vietnamese embassy have shown up, even though on the Vietnamese Internet news sites they claim to be very concerned about Vietnamese citizens in Japan - all of it a lie.
Even us policemen are going hungry and thirsty, so can you imagine what those Vietnamese foreign students are going through? The worst things here right now are the cold, the hunger and thirst, the lack of water and electricity.
People here remain calm - their sense of dignity and proper behavior are very good - so things aren’t as bad as they could be. But given another week, I can’t guarantee that things won't get to a point where we can no longer provide proper protection and order. They are humans after all, and when hunger and thirst override dignity, well, they will do whatever they have to do. The government is trying to provide air supply, bringing in food and medicine, but it’s like dropping a little salt into the ocean.
Brother, there are so many stories I want to tell you - so many, that I don’t know how to write them all. But there was a really moving incident. It involves a little Japanese boy who taught an adult like me a lesson on how to behave like a human being:
Last night, I was sent to a little grammar school to help a charity organization distribute food to the refugees. It was a long line that snaked this way and that and I saw a little boy around 9 years old. He was wearing a t-shirt and a pair of shorts.
It was getting very cold and the boy was at the very end of the line. I was worried that by the time his turn came there wouldn’t be any food left. So I spoke to him.
He said he was in the middle of PE at school when the earthquake happened. His father worked nearby and was driving to the school. The boy was on the third floor balcony when he saw the tsunami sweep his father’s car away. I asked him about his mother. He said his house is right by the beach and that his mother and little sister probably didn’t make it. He turned his head and wiped his tears when I asked about his relatives.
The boy was shivering so I took off my police jacket and put it on him. That’s when my bag of food ration fell out. I picked it up and gave it to him. “When it comes to your turn, they might run out of food. So here’s my portion. I already ate. Why don’t you eat it.”
The boy took my food and bowed. I thought he would eat it right away, but he didn't. He took the bag of food, went up to where the line ended and put it where all the food was waiting to be distributed. I was shocked. I asked him why he didn’t eat it and instead added it to the food pile …
He answered: “Because I see a lot more people hungrier than I am. If I put it there, then they will distribute the food equally.”
When I heard that I turned away so that people wouldn't see me cry. It was so moving -- a powerful lesson on sacrifice and giving. Who knew a 9-year-old in third grade could teach me a lesson on how to be a human being at a time of such great suffering? A society that can produce a 9- year-old who understands the concept of sacrifice for the greater good must be a great society, a great people.
It reminds me of a phrase that I once learned in school, a capitalist theory from the old man, Fuwa [Tetsuzo], chairman of the Japanese Communist Party: “If Marx comes back to life, he will have to add a phrase to his book, Capital, and that ‘Communist ideology is only successful in Japan.’”
Well, a few lines to send you and your family my warm wishes. The hours of my shift have begun again.

Damn, so this is your mentality? Inferior complex and trying to associate with Japan. No wonder your country is only fit as a colony. You don't have the heart and soul of a sovereign power . So you sell your butt to US and then Japan and then who else? Lol. No matter how weak or poor China was, we always knew our nation was great and destined to be great again. Even a beggar in China is proud of the HuaXia Civilization.
