Other destinations for Vietnamese workers included China with 1,920 workers, Singapore with 1,774 workers, and Romania with 824 workers.
Vietnam initially set a target to send 125,000 labourers abroad under contractual agreements this year.
In October alone, 16,744 labourers left Vietnam for overseas employments, with Japan, Taiwan (China), and the RoK as the largest recipients, accepting 6,156, 4,483, and 4,601 workers, respectively.
The department attributed the early fulfillment of the target to the stability of traditional labour markets, such as Taiwan (China), Japan, and the RoK, which have continued to employ a large number of Vietnamese workers throughout the January-October period.
At the same time, MoLISA has been expanding its reach to European labour markets, which offer higher incomes and jobs aligned with the skills of Vietnamese workers.
A MoLISA representative noted that measures to stabilise and expand the overseas labour market have recently been strengthened. The selection, training, and deployment of workers under labour contracts are being managed more rigorously, while efforts to disseminate information and policies regarding overseas employment have been enhanced.
In recent years, the number of Vietnamese workers to Japan has accounted for more than 50% of the total number of workers sent abroad annually. Labour cooperation between the two countries has become increasingly valued and seen remarkable development.
Vietnam wishes to further strengthen cooperation with Germany in vocational education and sending Vietnamese workers to the European country to work in the context of Germany's recent revision of its foreign worker reception policy, stated Deputy Minister of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs Le Tan Dung at a meeting with Country Director of Germany Development Agency (GIZ) in Vietnam Michaela Baur in Hanoi on September 17.
The Mexican Labour Party (PT) highly values the significant contributions of the Vietnamese revolutionary press to national defence and construction, including its crucial role in connecting information between Vietnam and the world.
