Investment environment introduced in Japan
(VOV) - A seminar has been held in Japan’s Ehime prefecture to promote investment in Vietnam.
Addressing the seminar, Vietnamese ambassador to Japan Doan Xuan Hung briefed more than 200 participants on Vietnam’s cultural, socio-economic and political situation. He said that Ehime has great potential for cooperation with Vietnam in the field of hi-tech machinery, garment and textiles, and human resource training. Vietnamese Counselor for Investment Le Huu Quang Huy said Vietnam is located in the most dynamic economic development region of South East Asia and its growing relations with Japan have made the country ever more attractive to investors.
Director of Ichihiro Vietnam Co, Ltd, Itsuhiro Ochi exchanged his experience in seeking right locations and partners to do business in Vietnam.
Director of Tact Noda Company, Mr Noda emphasized the need to train Vietnamese workers for small and medium-sized enterprises in Ehime.
However, he said there remain snags in the training process due to high costs and language barriers.
Representatives from financial institutions and Ehime University proposed measures to support investors in Vietnam and help train human resources properly. Late this year, the mayor of Ehime will lead a Japanese business delegation on a fact-finding visit to Vietnam.
