JICA to resume activities in Vietnam later this month
The Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) has decided to resume activities in Vietnam, having deemed the coronavirus situation to be relatively calm in the country.
Flights between Japan and Vietnam have already been resumed, and JICA plans to send eight of its members to the Southeast Asian nation from late November, according to Japan’s NHK.
The agency is also making final arrangements to resume activities in Thailand and Cambodia.
All of JICA's overseas volunteer projects have been suspended since March, given COVID-19 concerns. More than 2,000 people were repatriated from about 70 countries, mainly in Asia and Africa.
