The Chairperson and some members from the National Council met with a group of concerned parents and students sent through the learn and earn programme in Japan.
The meeting was requested by the group in order to share the problems faced by the youth and parents. More than 700 youth were sent to Japan through Bhutan Employment Overseas (BEO). The program was initiated jointly by the Ministry of Labour and Human Resources and Bhutan Employment Overseas.
The Chairperson of the National Council informed the group that the House will look into the matter and discuss with the concerned agencies.
The Social and Cultural Affairs Committee was assigned to review the matter urgently.
