Speaking at the event, Vietnamese Deputy Minister of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs Nguyen Ba Hoan said that labor cooperation is one of the main fields in bilateral relations.

Hoan stressed that sending Vietnamese people to work abroad is a major policy of the Vietnamese Government to create high-quality human resources. It helps the workers to generate jobs and income, support skills and professionalism improvement, especially for those who return home after working in the RoK to the Fatherland.

He sent words of encouragement to Vietnamese workers, hoping that they will make the most of the RoK’s new policy related to improve their skills and to meet the host country's requirements.
