W JAVA VOCATIONAL SCHOOL GRADUATES OFF TO JAPAN
Bandung, Indonesia, Sept 23 (ANTARA)- West Java Vice Governor Dede Yusuf here Tuesday sent off 11 graduates of the maritime departments of secondary vocational schools (SMKs) to Japan where they would work as fishery apprentices for three years.
Yusuf told the would-be fishery apprentices at a function in the basement of the Sate Building here, they had been chosen for the program in Japan also to act as good envoys for West Java province.
They were expected to become a source of provincial pride and be able to motivate others to make breakthroughs to improve fishery productivity, he said.
The fishery apprenticeship program in Japan was one way to improve the quality of West Java's fishery's human resources, he said. The program also had strategic significance as it was expected to help create more job opportunities, especially in the fishery sector.
Meanwhile, Darsono, head of the West Java fisheries office, said the 11 SMK graduates received by the vice governor on Tuesday were the second group of West Java youths taking part in the fishery apprenticeship program in Japan. The first group , also consisting of 11 SMK graduates, was sent to Japan some time ago.
The West Java youths would work as fishery apprentices in Japan for three years but after each year there would be an evaluation of their performance.
