Bangladeshi diploma engineers in civil, electrical and architecture fields are set to receive employment opportunities in Japan under a signed memorandum of understanding, officials said at a Tuesday meeting at the Secretariat. The initiative, led by Town Life Company Limited, has begun Japanese-language instruction for students of Dhaka Polytechnic Institute, with the Japanese company expected to cover costs from language and technical training through entry into Japan.
Prime Minister’s education and primary education adviser Mahdi Amin said Japan’s labour market is highly important for Bangladesh in the current circumstances. He said the government is pursuing multiple initiatives with Japan, prioritising Japanese-language education and working to assist Japanese teachers with visa applications and housing arrangements. The government is also taking steps to expand overseas labour markets and improve Technical Training Centre capacity.
Officials said the first batch’s Japanese-language course is nearly complete and a second batch is under way. Candidates who pass Japanese-language examinations will be sent to Japan in phases. First-batch jobs have been confirmed, with placements due to begin by October 2026; other selected candidates are expected to enter Japan by January 2027. Town Life will also support laboratory development and training equipment at Dhaka Polytechnic Institute.
