I was born and raised in Thanh Hoa Province, and since childhood I have had a desire to contribute to improving the working conditions of agricultural workers in Vietnam and around the world. Now I am studying in Faculty of Economics, PEARL at Keio University to achieve my vision of becoming an agricultural policy maker. I believe that economic policy on rice export will fulfill an important role in the future international stage for Vietnam, a country with a long-established agricultural culture. Another goal of mine is to utilize automation systems to reduce the physical labor of farmers and prevent outside factors from interfering with agriculture. I believe that the system will simplify the production process and improve the quality of rice grains. In Japan, a country that manages both natural and economic resources, I hope to learn effective economic policies for the agricultural sector and, in the future, to use this knowledge for economic and social development in Vietnam and around the world.
