Six years have passed since Yokosuka City established a sister-city relationship with Bharatpur City in south-central Nepal (reported in the link shown above) .... Mayor Kamiji recently made another trip to Nepal, along with a business and labor-related delegation, to gather information and update efforts & coordination to enable Nepalis to come to Yokosuka and work for local small- and medium-sized businesses .... Yokosuka, like other local governments around Japan, faced with aging & shrinking population, and therefore reaching out directly to foreign countries to help solve the serious labor shortage problem...

In order to support the utilization of foreign human resources by small and medium-sized enterprises, our city has concluded a memorandum of understanding with the city of Bharatpur in Nepal regarding mutual support, such as the dispatch of human resources.
As the labor shortage becomes more serious, the mayor will visit Bharatpur once again to confirm the local situation and will be accompanied by a delegation from the city's economic organizations to check the local human resources.
This trip is a rescheduled return to the city after it was canceled last October due to flight cancellations.
