one thing

Mr. Quet was impressed by Japan's safe scaffolding.

[Job Title] Scaffolding Work

I previously worked as a scaffolder in Vietnam.
However, their approach to safety was completely different from Japan's. In Japan, you gather all the materials and check the site conditions before starting work. I think it's wonderful that they have such clearly defined work procedures and prioritize safety above all else.

I got a salary increase after I became a Specified Skills. It was also good that the company was large and there were many seniors and colleagues. The people around me taught me a lot about work and life.
I like that the streets of Japan are very beautiful and quiet.

On my days off, I enjoy having meals with friends and savoring Japanese food like curry, sushi, and sashimi.
Among sashimi, I especially like salmon.
Also, in Japan, I lost my wallet twice and it was returned to me. I have been helped many times by the kindness of the Japanese people.

I intend to continue living in Japan. My wife also works in Japan, so I hope to continue living comfortably and securely with my family.
