Regarding education, Yen Bai hopes to organise exchanges in English language between students of the same grades of the province and Mimasaka by using Zoom or Google Team applications. During those activities, to be held once a month, students will present the identities of their respective localities’ culture and people.
In the field of labour, Yen Bai province hopes that Mimasaka city will send teachers to teach the Japanese language to students and workers at the Yen Bai Vocational School, and that it will receive local technical workers under internship programmes.
In terms of agriculture, it suggested Mimasaka assist the province to develop value chains for local OCOP products like soybean oil, orange, Shan Tuyet tea, vermicelli, Bat Tien tea, and cinnamon oil.
Showing support for Yen Bai’s proposals, Hagiwara Seiji expressed his hope that he will soon pay a working visit to the province to discuss and share experience in agricultural development and explore opportunities for Mimasaka companies to invest in Yen Bai. In the coming time, Mimasaka city looks to receive two students from Yen Bai to learn the Japanese language.
