K-Laos CC Lab launched to promote young designer development

The Korea International Cooperation Agency to Laos (KOICA) in cooperation with IJobs Company launched K-Lao CC Lab vocational training centre at ASEAN Mall, Vientiane on Feb 14 under the Korea Fashion Brand Development Project (K-Fashion).

The project aims to promote the development of Lao young designers, awareness of K-Fashion brands and sale, and the creativity of local youth.

Mr Bounthieng Lattanavong President of IJobs Company said that the opening of the K-Lao CC Lab Training Centre aimed to promote human resource development by training Lao youth on knowledge and skills on fashion design, tailoring and beautification with trainers from the Republic of Korea.

The K-Fashion project also builds sustainable cooperative relations with various parties in the Republic of Korea, according to Mr Bounthieng.

Under this project, IJobs Company will select trainees for the K-Fashion vocational training programme and we hope that it will develop Lao youth to be a good designer for fashion houses in the country as today employment in the industry is growing in Laos. We believe in the importance of investing in the fashion industry, added Mr Bounthieng.
