日本人駐在員らがベトナム入り　制限緩和の合意後で初めて

　【ハノイ時事】新型コロナウイルスの感染拡大阻止を目指したベトナム政府による入国制限で渡航できなかった日本人駐在員ら約１５０人が２５日、ベトナム航空の臨時便で北部バンドン空港に到着した。日本とベトナム両政府は１９日、双方のビジネス客の往来再開に向けて制限措置を段階的に緩和することで合意したと発表。両国の合意後、初めての日本人の渡航となった。
　２７日までの３日間にベトナムに入国する日本人は、駐在員、長期出張の技術者らを含めて合計約４４０人になる見通し。バンドン空港到着後、ウイルス検査を受け、民間のホテルで１４日間の隔離期間を過ごすことが義務付けられている。
　両政府は今後、日本人ビジネスマンらの渡航拡大に向けた制限措置のさらなる緩和を協議する。技能実習生を含めたベトナムの企業関係者の訪日についても話し合いを進め、円滑な人の往来を目指す。（2020/06/25-17:01）

Some 150 Japanese business people arrived in Vietnam on Thursday, marking the first such entry since Tokyo and Hanoi agreed last week to mutually ease travel restrictions imposed as part of the fight against the novel coronavirus outbreak.
   A Vietnam Airlines flight carrying the Japanese business travelers arrived at Van Don International Airport in northern Vietnam.
   The Japanese and Vietnamese governments said Friday last week that they will mutually relax entry restrictions related to the pandemic in stages to resume business travel between the two countries.
   A total of some 440 Japanese business people are expected to enter Vietnam in the three days through Saturday thanks to an easing in the country's restrictions. After arrival, they are required to undergo coronavirus tests and to be quarantined for 14 days at hotels.
   The two governments will discuss additionally easing Vietnam's entry restrictions so that more Japanese business people can travel to the Southeast Asian country, while promoting talks on visits to Japan by Vietnamese business people, including technical trainees.
