Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO) President Yasushi Akahoshi has written a letter to Finance Minister Senator Ishaq Dar in which he acknowledged that the economic progress made by Pakistan provided confidence to Japanese companies for increased business collaboration.
Akahoshi appreciated the Finance minister and the government for pursuing economic policies which were geared towards “ensuring stable and strong economic prosperity” in Pakistan and expressed that JETRO was “fully committing all possible efforts toward deepening” the bilateral economic relationship.
The JETRO president thanked the minister for meeting the JETRO delegation which accorded an opportunity to discuss areas for more active economic cooperation between Pakistan and Japan.
JETRO Country Director Osamu Hisaki, while delivering the letter, said that JETRO was thankful to the minister, Board of Investment (BoI) and Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) for facilitating Japanese companies in doing business in Pakistan. He said that various issues faced by Japanese companies in Pakistan were getting rectified due to “swift responses by the authorities” and strong pro-investment policy of the government, which has created confidence for other Japanese companies to invest in Pakistan.
He informed that a business exhibition by Japanese companies would soon be held in Karachi under the auspices of JETRO to promote future investment in Pakistan.
