Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc visits Nidec Group.

Before leaving Japan, the Prime Mininster visited the headquarters of the Nidec-Shimpo Corporation of Nidec Group – a world’s leading hi-tech company that started operation in 1973.

Nidec has carried out investment activities in Vietnam’s southern metropolis of Ho Chi Minh City since 1998 with seven projects worth nearly 800 million USD, contributing to the city’s socio-economic development over the past 20 years.

The group is studying an investment project of about 500 million USD at Hoa Lac Hi-tech Park, which is expected to generate tens of thousands of jobs and bring in huge export turnover.

The Prime Minister affirmed that the Vietnamese Government and the capital of Ha Noi would create the best conditions for foreign investors, including Nidec, to operate effectively in Hoa Lac Hi-tech Park.

He praised Nidec’s plan to build a research and development centre in HCM City and suggested establishing a similar one in Ha Noi to enhance cooperation in training and scientific research with Vietnamese universities.

Nidec President and CEO Shigenobu Nagamori thanked the Vietnamese government and particularly Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc and Vietnamese localities for supporting the group’s operation in the country.

He hoped to receive more assistance when investing in Ha Noi.

The Prime Minister later met with leaders from the Japan-Vietnam Friendship Association (JVFA)’s chapters in Osaka, Hyogo, and Nara prefectures and Sakai city.

At the meetings, he recognised the chapters’ active contributions to the enhancement of people-to-people and cultural exchanges between the two countries. 

He affirmed that the Vietnamese government attaches importance to developing ties with Japanese localities and provides optimal conditions for Japanese businesses to invest in the country.

Leaders of the JVFA chapters said their organisations will closely coordinate with Vietnam in hosting activities in celebration of the 45th founding anniversary of the two countries’ diplomatic ties in Osaka and Kansai regions in 2018.

Before concluding his official visit to Japan, Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc visited the Vietnamese Consulate General in Osaka.
