[Work location] Tokyo

[Job Title] Civil Engineering Work

I also have experience working in the construction industry in Vietnam. I've heard that the Japanese construction industry has a wide variety of jobs and is very strict about safety management.
I decided to work for Nippon Koshi Co., Ltd., and thanks to that, I was able to work on the construction site of a famous building in Tokyo. This remains a very fond memory for me.

Because I used to live in Taiwan, I initially struggled to switch to Japanese. However, by using Japanese in conversations every day at work, I gradually became able to speak it.

On my days off, I enjoy playing futsal with my colleagues. Although I currently live separately from my family, I work hard for the sake of my three children. In the future, I hope to use my experience in Japan to start a construction-related company in Vietnam.
