Prospective candidates, both from private recruitment agencies and the public sector, will now have the chance to showcase their Japanese skills and language proficiency through a computer-based testing system.

Under the initiative, the Ministry has scheduled Japanese skills and language tests to be conducted at the Institute of Education Development (EDI).
