Tokyo, April 17. A special language and cultural training program has been launched for Nepali workers in Japan through a joint initiative by the Japanese government and Nepali Embassy in Tokyo.

The main objective of this training program is to teach the Japanese language to Nepali workers and familiarize them with the cultural values and work environment there. The plan is to provide this training to 500 new workers every month.

Nepali Ambassador Dr. Ganga Prasad Lama said, "Our workers always do excellent work in Japan but language and cultural barriers cause them additional difficulties. This training program will help solve that problem."
