Tokyo (VNA) – The sports association of the Vietnam People’s Police Force and the Vietnam – Japan international exchange organisation (FAVIJA) will build sport cooperation programmes under a Memorandum of Understanding recently signed between the two sides in Japan.

Accordingly, FAVIJA will help the association establish training and coaching programmes as well as mobilise resources to develop the Vietnamese police force’s sports, particularly in the fields of Japan’s strengths like karate, jujitsu, track and field, and table tennis.

Besides, they will work together to organise sport exchange activities between the Vietnamese Ministry of Public Security and the National Police Agency (NPA) of Japan.

Speaking at the signing ceremony, Counsellor at the Vietnamese Embassy in Japan Nguyen Duc Minh highlighted the sound development of the Vietnam – Japan relations in such areas as politics, diplomacy, economy, defence security and people to people exchanges.
