The Chairperson of the Punjab Higher Education Commission (PHEC), Prof. Dr. Shahid Munir, made an important announcement at a recent event hosted by the Pakistan-Japan Socio-Economic Association. The commission would suggest including Japanese in the curriculum.
Dr. Munir went into more detail about the reasoning for this choice, emphasizing how it could improve commercial ties between Pakistan and Japan. Pakistan wants to improve its links with Japan’s renowned manufacturing, electronics, and automotive sectors by adopting the Japanese language.
Dr. Munir also provided information on the ongoing initiatives to improve the educational infrastructure and boost enrollment. In preparing a trained workforce, he emphasized the need for technical and vocational education.
It would be feasible for graduates from Pakistani universities to look into job possibilities in the manufacturing, engineering, and IT fields by introducing the Japanese language to these schools.
Speaking Japanese well would be essential for obtaining scholarships and promoting a strong socioeconomic alliance between the two countries.
