Delivering speech at the ceremony, Mr. Kiko Kenji - Production General Manager of Canon Vietnam shared: “In Japan, the career orientation for pupils is drastically implemented from the secondary school, then after graduating from secondary school, the pupils are able to decide to study at the technical training schools or continue studying at high schools and universities. This is also the common trend of developed countries in the world. To my knowledge, recently Vietnam has applied the proposal of educating career orientation for pupils to catch up with that trend. We hope that through the career orientation program, you will know how to choose the suitable future jobs, how to determine your dreams, as well as how to make plan to make your dream come true. Then, we hope to help Vietnam improve the quality of national human resource training and integrate with regional and international countries.”

With the philosophy of “Kyosei - Living and working together for the common good”, Canon Vietnam hopes that the project will continuously be expanded to more rural schools in the next time in order to contribute more to the development of Vietnam as a leading Japanese enterprise in Vietnam for a sustainable development society, aiming to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of Vietnam and the world.
