Islamabad and Tokyo have signed a memorandum of cooperation, under which trained Pakistani labourers would be provided with employment opportunities in Japan.

The agreement was signed in the presence of Special Assistant to PM on Overseas Pakistanis and Human Resource Development Zulfiqar Bukhari, Japanese Ambassador to Pakistan Kuninori Matsuda, Foreign Secretary Sohail Mahmood and other high-level officials.

“The newly signed memorandum will help the trained Pakistani labourers get employment in Japan,” said a statement issued by the ministry. “This is a major milestone that will further enhance bilateral ties between both countries.”

Addressing the ceremony, the Japanese envoy termed the agreement a “special occasion” for both nations, saying that it would play a key role in strengthening the existing ties between Pakistan and Japan.

“Japanese language and technical expertise are essential for employment in Japan; the country needs approximately 340,000 trained labourers,” he added.

Speaking on the occasion, Zulfiqar Bukhari highlighted that 65 per cent of the Pakistan population was below the age of 35, adding that employment opportunities were present in 14 sectors of Japan.

He urged the youth to especially focus on the information technology sector citing future needs.

On December 20, the Japanese ambassador had met Zulfiqar Bukhari for a pre-discussion on the agreement which is signed on Monday (today).

According to a statement issued by the ministry, the two sides had discussed a wide range of issues related to trade, tourism and manpower.

The envoy had informed that Japan would build a network, in collaboration with language universities in Pakistan, and carry out 3 to 6 months language proficiency course with e-learning facilities for far-flung areas so as to accommodate the maximum number of Pakistanis to work in Japan.

Acknowledging their diligence and social conduct, the ambassador showed his highest gratitude towards 25,000 Pakistanis residing and working in Japan.

Diversification from China and US is very important

BS, pure BS. You obviously don’t know.

If Japan can hire Indian programmers why can’t they hire Pakistani? Japan’s only requirements are skilled workers with Proficiency in Japanes language.

Regarding “uneasy about CPEC”, even UAE and Iran is uneasy about that. Japan is more worried about South China Sea and Chinese expansion then CPEC.

Diversification from China and US is very important

We need same kind of program with South Korea, Germany and Eastern European countries.

Very very good initiative.
Large number of people should go and settle to Japan. They are very werid people. Would waste half a day over silly Things such as lunch boxes and gift cover. Lol or even buying hello kitty purses .
Anyway it is a rich nation and Can provide jobs and home to many Pakistan and is win win for both

Why should Japan be uneasy about cpec. I think there is a very important project in cpec the bridges that connect balochistan and punjab in koh e suleiman. It was a project under cpec. But funded by the japenese. Please do a little bit of research. China don't work the way we do. It's not a zero sum game for them. It's not like you are our friends or our enemies.
They work well with Japan, us, India.
You must also learn to work with all.
Japanese are very much interested to get contracts in Pakistan cpec. And China is very happy to involve them.

LOL the day large amount of people settle in Japan we will talk. Now in the meanwhile control your excitement.

Japan belongs in the India/US camp.

The Japanese aren't hiring shit from Pakistan. If they do I will eat my words. Please remind me if and when Japan hires Pak workers. Be it programmers or oworkers. I will come to this very thread to admit that I was wrong.

Like I said, Japan is a US pet. One of a kind. They don't give a shit about Pakistan. They are only in this whole thing to break up and unsettle Pak China cooperation. The Japanese don't hide their viciousness against China and Pakistan. The Japs are not a friend of Pakistan. Hold your excitement.

Since there is shortage of skill workers in Japan, they might offer citizenship to foreign skill workers. There are minimum requirements to acquire citizenship of Japan. Please see attach link. https://www.wikihow.com/Become-a-Japanese-Citizen

Estimated 15 to 20K Pakistani are living in Japan but mostly are not working high paying jobs.

Japan is in US and india's friend yes . Japan is too big of a country to be in anybody's camp. They are friends yes. But what does that make Japan for us? So are we going to do pakki kutti to Japan for being friendly with India ?
Please go to Google and write 'India and China relations'. You would be quite surprised to find how good they are. Despite China being supportive to Pakistan. What is wrong with India they that are even friendly to work with a country like China who is helping Pakistan call a un meeting on kahsmir ? Or what is wrong with a country like China who is working with India who has given assylum to dalai lama or raise the issue of uiger?
What is the problem with us? Why can't we be friends with Japan even if he is friends with India. Why it is a zero sum game for you .
All great friendships have to start somewhere. My parents while growing up in 70s would have ever thought that Saudi Arabia and uae would ever be stregic parter to India? Would they ever think that us would be buddies with India? And look now.
Kid you are from a media cell and know nothing about how things work.
Again if zulfiqar Ali bhutto never send this huge workforce in his era and this method continues on later too just like now Imran khan is doing. Then we would not have 19 billion dollars coming in every year besides very vibrant communities in UK and US that are our asset there .
Similarly if we have not send people in UK and US, would we have such large remitences . Surely at that time there are people like you who would have questioned the use of sending workers or have said jub bejho ga to dekho on ga.
Half an year ago we have no mou . Now we have mou with Japan in which they have specially included us in 12 countries where they would be seeking migrants from. India is not included in that list and the only other Muslim Nation is bangaldesh.
So this is a opening for Pakistanis and many many unlike you would avail it . They would become an asset of pakistan and would also send back billions of revenue as the people currently sending revenue in Pakistan are getting old and are about to retire

You think the Japs are going to hire workers from Pakistan when they have an army of highly skilled workers in neighboring countries? The Japs are playing games. They have announced and signed such insignificant deals before. It is all for optics and to disrupt things. The Japs cannot influence things in Pakistan. They try their best, but they are too insignificant in Pakistan to influence anything.

These are the same Japs that condemned and begged Pakistan a few days ago along with butt buddy India to reign in so-called terror groups operating from our soil.

Fvck the hypocritical Japs. We know that they are playing damage control games here.

India is a disloyal whore that feeds from every nook and corner. It profits from the misery of others. They can dance on my middle finger. Don't cite their example.

We are not going to imitate Rapistan. We are going to remain loyal to our allies. Even if they are few, but steadfast and committed. Your thinking is short term. It leads to more harm than good. Where was Japan when China came to Pakistan to invest billions whilst the rest of the world was accusing our nation of terrorism with lapdog USA and Rapistan India at the forefront? You guessed it right. They were absent and standing next to Rapistan and their master USA. The Japanese position hasn't changed today. What has changed is their sudden interest in disrupting China Pak relations. Just a few years ago they were laughing it off as a joke. Today they are pleading and begging to Pakistan and China to abandon their projects. We are not crazy.

LOL Suddenly today these hyenas have found interest in Pakistan. Don't make me laugh.

Good foreign policy to diversify and don’t put all our eggs in one basket. We need to work with all countries including Japan, South Korea, Russian, USA, etc.
USA has more leverage because of IMF and FATF nothing changed in the progress of CPEC.
In my opinion Japan doesn’t care about CPEC. They have no leverage and they can’t influence Pakistan to Abandon our relationship with China. Do you understand that? Knowing the fact that they can’t influence us, why would Japan try?
something is diffidently wrong with you. You have to be realistic and know how the world politics works. Your logic doesn’t make any sense, Regardless of what argument you put forward.

Exclude backstabbers like Japan and the USA from your list. These are not our friends. They are harmful and toxic nations that stand with India. Their only purpose to "befriend" Pakistan is to disrupt and act as spoilers.

No, we are not stupid. We understand why US and Japan are renewing their interest in Pakistan. It is not a genuine attempt to build bridges. It is an attempt to negatively influence Chinese involvement in Pakistan. It is no secret that US and Japan are fully opposed to China's rise.

I wouldn't risk China's friendship over some insignificant offers from the US and Japan. Japan and the US combined cannot substitute China.

USA is pakistan’s biggest trade Partner. Removing USA means you lost 16% of total export. USA may want to contain China and they may be going through Trade war but China and USA are the biggest trade partners.
India May think China as it’s enemy but China is investigating in India more than Pakistan. You need to learn about economy and international politics. There are no friends and enemies, there are only interests. Russia is India’s biggest defense supplier but Russian companies want to invest in Pakistan.

It seems like Endian Dhoti is on fire.

The US is seeing how little by little China is replacing its clout. US clout in Pakistan has been reduced to USAID LOL It won't be very long before China has replaced the US as its main trading partner. Just give it some more time.

People who have a pair of eyes understand why the US is behaving so erratically as it is. It is making a total arse out of itself in the international arena. The reason is that the US is feeling the heat. It abandoned Pakistan and threw it away in like a used tissue. Today is pleading in front of the world. These are just flames reaching the legs. Wait till the actual fire has reached the body.

If the news has not reached you, US Pak dealings are over. The US can beg on its knees. We won't forget Salala and the rest. Our only ally is China. The US won't ever be able to make a comeback in Pakistan.
