TOKYO -- Japan-based restaurant group Watami will establish a center in Bangladesh to train locals in areas like farming and food service under plans announced Thursday.
The company aims to send 3,000 or so people a year to Japan on "specified skilled worker" visas, 100 of whom it expects to hire in its restaurant business. The Japan Training Center will open this coming October at facilities of a Bangladeshi government agency in the capital, Dhaka.
