This year, the provincehas set a target of sending 150 workers overseas.
Tran Van Trua, deputyhead of the provincial Department of Labour, Sports and Tourism, said mostworkers opted for Malaysia, the Republic of Korea, Japan, and several MiddleEast countries,
However, the diseaseoutbreak and security uncertainties in the Middle East are making the goaldifficult to achieve.
To address the issue,the department is planning to contact domestic businesses with high recruitmentdemands so that workers can find jobs in other provinces and cities.
Efforts are also madeto inform people about the labour market and manage those who go overseas to workunder legal contracts to prevent fraud and protect labourers’ interests.
Last year, Ninh Thuanhad 210 labourers working in several nations and territories such as Malaysia,Japan, the RoK, China’s Taiwan, and Saudi Arabia./.
