Since July 2024, as an agent for Kumon Publishing Co., Ltd., we have been supporting the Uzbek language drill publishing operations of Sakura Books Ltd., a publisher in Uzbekistan. The drills were recently published, and on May 15th a commemorative event for the publication of Uzbek Kumon Drills was held by the publisher at the JICA Uzbekistan Japan Center, who kindly provided the venue. The Kumon representatives attended on line and introduced Kumon Philosophy, the popularity of the drills, and the quality of the paper. It was a good opportunity to deepen understanding of Kumon Drills. Sakura Books acquired the rights of the four Kumon Drills. They translated, printed and published them. The company will be selling the Uzbek version of the Drills within Uzbekistan. We are happy and proud that we have been involved in the publication of Uzbek drill books – the first of its kind in the world. We hope Uzbek version of Drills will increase in variety and volume, enabling Uzbek infants and children to have more learning opportunities and the joy of learning.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 (May 2025)

In response to a request from the Japan International Cooperation Center for operational support for “various activities related to industrial human resource development in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia,” we have provided support with the Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources of the Kingdom as our counterpart. The consultant in charge flew to Saudi Arabia to explain to MIM about the plan of the scheduled training visit in Japan and received their consent.

In September 2024, we received a request for cooperation in “Small and Medium Enterprise Management Support Training in Japan.” We designed training in various manufacturing industries. The topics of the training were Toyota way Management System, Toyota Production System, and Japanese-style Management/KAIZEN, and included lectures and site visits to experience the cases introduced in the lectures.
All the participants showed a sincere and courteous learning attitude and were eager to take advantage of the opportunity to acquire knowledge, and we were confident that they would be able to apply the knowledge to the business improvement practice in their country.

We would like to express our deepest gratitude to Toyota Engineering Co., Ltd., Tanaka Tech Co., Ltd., Panasonic Eco Technology Center Co., Ltd., and Nabeya Co., Ltd. for kindly agreeing to receive visits and providing the delegates with great cooperation in internal briefings and work site tours.

This project is related to “activities related to industrial human resource development in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia” carried out based on a subsidy provided by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry’s Agency for Natural Resources and Energy. This will help strengthen the relationship and ensure a stable supply of energy for Japan.

In mid-September, 10 food-related business owners and managers came to Japan for JICA Uzbekistan-Japan Center’s recruitment-based 12-day training program, hoping to learn about Japanese-style management and utilize it in their corporate operations. Our company planned lectures on Japanese-style management, a visit to a food trade fair (FOODEX JAPAN in Kansai), visits to food related companies and participation in business exchange event.
At the companies they visited, they received seminars and opportunity to observe production sites, gained insights that will help them solve the problems they face. They were impressed by the Japanese-style management, the quality of production equipment and products, awareness and work efficiency of employees.
Also, they exchanged opinions regarding issues such as quality superiority of Japanese products and pricing, maintenance systems, distribution systems, etc., with a view to future transaction.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the following companies for accepting visit, for the training seminars by the representatives and managers, and for the tour of the factory and production equipment.
Okura Yusoki Co., Ltd., Yamato Scale Co., Ltd. , Skylark Holdings Co., Ltd., Ajinomoto Frozen Foods Co., Ltd., and The Monogatari corporation.

We hosted a training group from Uzbekistan’s state-owned bank, Xalq Bank, a private bank, Trast Bank, and an insurance agency affiliated with Xalq Bank. The training program was conducted with the cooperation of JICA Uzbekistan Center and Relo Excel Co., Ltd., and received high praise from the group members for the selection of training destinations and the content of the training.

The participants visited Kansai Cultural and Academic Research City Promotion Organization (Keihanna), Osaka Business Development Agency, Osaka Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Toyota Financial Services, commercial bank head office, Japan Finance Corporation, JICA, NTT Data, microfinance company, etc., and gained valuable experience by learning about examples of regional revitalization promotion projects in Japan, small and medium-sized enterprise support policies and examples, and KAIZEN methods for banking operations.

With Covid-19 pandemic gradually coming under control, our human resources development assistance contracts have been back to on-site engagements – after the 2 years and a half of on-line jobs. We are engaged in our roles in the business courses at the Japan Centers in Kyrgyz, Uzbekistan, Laos, Myanmar, providing business trainings in production plans, business plans, management strategies and marketing.
