Labour and Foreign Employment Minister Manusha Nanayakkara requested Japan International Resource Office (IRO) Director Suga Katsukai to explore the possibilities of recruiting more Sri Lankan youth as technical trainees in Japan.

The request was made when the Minister met the IRO director with officials from the Sri Lanka Bureau of Foreign Employment (SLBFE) recently.

The delegation gave a favorable response to the request and said that the Japanese greatly appreciate Sri Lankans' technical ability and elderly care services.

In December 2021, a memorandum of understanding (MoU) was signed between Japan's IRO and (SLBFE) to direct Sri Lankan youth to work in Japan as technical trainees. (Chaturanga Pradeep Samarawickrama)

Help our Varsity students Saturday, 22 July 2023 01:07 PM

Please give preference to IUSF members and IUBF members - University laymen students and Bikkhu students! They are a pain in the butt to the rulers, the Police and campus administrators. This will help us save public money given as student loans, that have to be written off at the end of the period.

We must provide the basics as a Certificate I, II or III course before exposing them to overseas training in any field. We don't have such a system and it is a great lapse.

No plans to create job opportunities within the country?
