In his remarks, Nguyen Duc Minh, Ambassador of the Vietnamese Embassy in Japan emphasized the importance and effectiveness of Vietnam-Japan economic cooperation, and highly appreciated the great contributions of Japanese investors to the development of Vietnam.

Regarding Vietnam's current investment attraction policy, Minh noted that with the policy of cooperation, attracting foreign investment selectively, towards quality, technology, efficiency, and environmental protection, in the coming time, the Government of Vietnam will prioritize attracting investment projects for sectors such as science – technology, innovation – creativity, research and development.

The second priority is electronic components, automobiles, and electric cars. The third one is the production of semiconductors, new energy, renewable energy, and the fourth is biotechnology, healthcare... He believed these are good opportunities to promote sustainable investment cooperation between the two countries in the coming time.

This project is highly appreciated by Japanese businesses in the overall "green and clean investment system", and the business environment is increasingly improving in Vietnam.

Imano Hiroshi – Vice Chairman of THK Company – a leading enterprise in the field of manufacturing precision mechanical components in Japan shared that Vietnam has a great development potential as an investment destination.

“Since more than 10 years ago, when we started investing in Vietnam, we have gradually contemplated the attraction of Vietnam. In recent years, there have been many businesses from China, South Korea, Japan... investing heavily in Hanoi. In terms of development potential, Vietnam has a much greater advantage than other countries in the region. Therefore, we have decided to continue investing in this project,” said Imano.
