The government previously asked the General Department to raise the ratio of trained labourers to 50 percent by 2010 and 70 percent by 2015, provide vocational skills to one million rural labourers by 2009, and implement a project to assist young people in learning these skills in 2009-2015.
Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Thien Nhan requested all sectors to establish their own training programmes by 2009. The national vocational training system will also be expanded and upgraded in the near future.

International Volunteer Day provides an opportunity for volunteer organizations and individual volunteers to work together in projects and campaigns bringing added visibility to their contributions to economic and social development at local, national and international levels.
In Ho Chi Minh City, Volunteers and Volunteer Sending and Involving Organizations are again coming together to organise activities to celebrate this important day and further promote the message of volunteerism and the work of volunteers in Vietnam. The main difference in this year’s event will be that volunteers are actively involved in planning, organizing and implementing the activities.
