Under a cooperation programme between the Vietnamese Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs (MoLISA) and the International Manpower Development Organisation of Japan, each of the localities, including Ha Giang, Ninh thuan, Tuyen Quang and Binh Thuan, will make a list of 20 candidates to be selected for the programme. MoLISA has asked the northern border province of Ha Giang and the southcentral coastal province of Ninh thuan to give priority to poor districts in line with the Prime Minister’s decision on April 29, 2009 to help poor districts promote labour exports, reduce poverty and develop sustainably during the 2009-2020 period. Eligible candidates must meet requirements on health, language skills and discipline.
