Long An organizes Labor Promotion Conference with Okayama City (Japan)

The delegation was received by Chairman of the Okayama City Industry and Trade Association - Matsuda Hisashi, members of the Okayama City Business Association and Japanese enterprises interested in recruiting workers from Long An province to work in Okayama City.

In his welcoming speech, Mr. Matsuda Hisashi said he was very pleased to welcome the Long An Provincial Delegation. In 2023, the Long An Provincial Delegation visited Okayama City and signed a Memorandum of Understanding. In April 2024, the delegation of the Okayama City Industry and Trade Association also visited a number of production facilities and was very impressed with the development potential and infrastructure of Long An International Port.

Mr. Matsuda Hisashi believes that in the coming time, Long An will develop remarkably and hopes to have many more exchanges like this through various cooperation channels.

Currently, the labor shortage in Japan is increasing, while Long An province has a young and skilled workforce, so in the coming time, it is very necessary to have the support of Long An provincial leaders and businesses to send workers to work in Japan, contributing to reducing the shortage of human resources working in factories in Okayama City.
