Also within the framework of his working trip to Wakayama prefecture, Consul General Ha visited Aridagawa town, which has the highest yield and quality of tangerines in Japan. The Aridagawa authorities said the town is facing many difficulties because of the shortage of labor force, and expressed their desire to receive more Vietnamese interns.
