Japanese businesses want to invest in Vietnam

Around 30% of Japanese businesses that are intent on investing overseas consider Vietnam as their prime choice, according to a recent survey by Japan External Trade Organisation (JETRO). JETRO reported that it will conduct a fact-finding tour in the near future of key industrial zones in northern Vietnam, such as Hanoi, Hung Yen, Bac Ninh, Ha Nam, Haiphong and Quang Ninh for 26 Japanese businesses. JETRO chief representative in Hanoi Atsusuke Kawada said his agency anticipates that the visit will facilitate Japanese businesses gain a better understanding about the northern region’s investment environment, encouraging them to invest in the country.                                                                                                                                                      VOV
