Yoichi Kobayashi, Chairman of the Chamber’s Japan-Mekong Economic Cooperation Committee who headed the delegation, said the agency has more than 500 branches across Japan with 1.3 million members, almost all of them are small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), making up one third of Japan’s total SMEs.

The businesses joining the trip are mainly active in the support industry.

Hailing Vinh Phuc’s convenient geological location and infrastructure, Kobayashi expressed his hope that there will be more Japanese investors to operate in the locality following the visit.

Currently, as many as 26 Japanese businesses are investing in Vinh Phuc with a total registered capital of 800 million USD.
