The PM highly valued the bank’s financing for Japanese investors operating in industrial production and energy and transport infrastructure construction in Viet Nam. 

The financing amount that reached  billions of US$ from the BTMU is considered as the specific result of a round-table dialogue between PM Dung and the BTMU and other 13 largest Japanese groups in Tokyo in December 2013.
He committed to supporting Japanese businesses to invest in Viet Nam in the auxiliary and high-tech industries, infrastructure and agricultural development as well as encouraged the two nations to accelerate investment and trade activities.

The PM re-affirmed the Vietnamese Government’s commitments in creating a favorable and open policy environment for foreign investors, including Japanese ones to launch long-term and successful operations in Viet Nam.

Viet Nam ranked second among the ASEAN members in terms of the number of Japanese investors with over 1,500 enterprises from Japan, revealed the BTMU Chairman, who added that Japan is willing to transfer technology in the supporting industries to Viet Nam’s small- and medium-sized enterprises. 
He praised Viet Nam’s fast and sustainable economic growth orientations and its three strategic breakthroughs in terms of institution, infrastructure and human resources in accordance to restructuring the economy and transiting growth model.

Mr. Nobuyuki Hirano suggested Viet Nam continue ramping up skilled worker training, developing the private sector and speeding up equitization as well as accelerating the administrative procedure reform.
