Japan, an advanced country with a strong economy and large demand for human resources, has long attracted Vietnamese labor. However, after the fluctuations of the economic market, is this country still a promised land for young Vietnamese people?
Is the Japanese market still attractive?
Japan is not only a developed economy, but also a leader in science, technology and services. With an aging and shrinking population, labor shortages are becoming more severe, especially in sectors such as construction, manufacturing, agriculture and healthcare. To achieve its economic growth target, Japan will need 4.19 million foreign workers by 2030 and 6.88 million by 2040, even with rapid automation, according to estimates by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA).
In order to improve the serious labor shortage caused by the aging population, the Japanese Government has adopted many new policies, prioritizing the protection of the rights of foreigners working in Japan, creating opportunities for them to live and work longer. However, the new regime requires workers to have a certain level of Japanese language proficiency.
Many young people living and working in Japan face significant challenges such as language barriers, differences in skills, work standards and corporate culture. These problems lead to a long time to adapt to the new environment. As a result, Vietnamese workers find it difficult to achieve the expected income level, especially in the context of the yen exchange rate decreasing compared to before. However, foreign enterprises always appreciate Vietnamese people for their diligence, progressive spirit and ability to learn, showing that they have great potential in improving their professional skills.

With the new policy from the Japanese Government, workers with language skills, high skills and good adaptability are becoming potential candidates for this market. Japan not only provides a safe working environment, but also brings a professional working style, stable income and access to advanced technology. Specifically, the number of Vietnamese people living and working in Japan has increased significantly, from about 200,000 in 2016 to 570,000 today. This proves that Japan is a reliable destination, chosen by many Vietnamese workers to develop their careers, study and live.
Even when many young people choose to return to develop their careers in Vietnam, they still bring with them many valuable advantages such as a solid language foundation, high skills and the ability to adapt to the strict corporate culture in Japan - factors that Japanese businesses that are investing heavily in Vietnam especially appreciate.
Although Japan is attractive with many opportunities, it is also one of the most demanding markets with high standards. Young people not only have to face language, skills and cultural integration barriers, but also have to worry about financial issues, as the initial costs are often very high. This makes many families, especially in rural and remote areas, consider carefully before deciding.
"Go to Japan first - Pay later" - Confident international integration luggage for young Vietnamese people
In the context of Vietnam being in the golden population period with 52.5 million people of working age, the youth unemployment rate remains at a worrying level. According to the General Statistics Office, in the second quarter of 2024, the country had about 1.3 million young people (aged 15 to 24) without jobs and not participating in education or training. One of the reasons for this situation is the lack of orientation, lack of access to opportunities for self-development, career development, especially opportunities in attractive international environments such as Japan.
To address these challenges, Cen Academy has developed a comprehensive training program that not only teaches specialized Japanese but also provides career guidance and develops the skills, manners, and discipline needed in an international environment. With a modern infrastructure system and teaching methods approaching international standards, Cen Academy helps students not only optimize their study time in Vietnam but also prepare them with a solid foundation to confidently enter the Japanese labor market.
Students at Cen Academy are trained comprehensively in language, career orientation, skills and discipline.
With the desire to support young people to overcome financial barriers when accessing international study and work environments, Cen Academy has cooperated with VPBank to implement the program "Go to Japan first - Pay later". The program provides a credit support package with 0% interest rate for 12 months and does not require collateral, reducing the initial cost burden for students' families. Students only need to pay a small amount for the cost of studying in Vietnam, while the rest can be paid in interest-free installments via credit card. This initiative opens up opportunities for many young people to access valuable international study and work experiences.
The program "Go to Japan first - Pay later" provides comprehensive equipment for young people to conquer the Japanese market.
The cooperation between Cen Academy and VPBank promises to remove all barriers, opening up opportunities for young Vietnamese people to conquer the potential Japanese market with attractive income and a clear career development roadmap.
