I and the leaders of the Hokkaido government with over 400 people went to Quang Ninh to participate in the Hokkaido festival event on a direct flight from Chitose airport to Van Don airport. This has shown advantages in promoting cooperation between the two provinces.

The Quang Ninh - Japan Investment Promotion Conference is an important event at the festival.

Thereby, it shows that the activities within the framework of the Festival have collected results. attracted attention and gathered many Japanese officials. In recent times, Vietnam has always been ranked No. 1 by Japanese businesses to consider investing in the next 3 years and Quang Ninh has also become a bright spot in the investment map of Japanese businesses in Vietnam. .

Therefore, the conference has great significance, further enhancing Japanese businesses' understanding of the beautiful land of Quang Ninh. I also hope that through this conference, the open and frank exchange between the parties will help many people and businesses in Quang Ninh feel the strong potential of Hokkaido. From there, further promoting the sustainable cooperative relationship between Vietnam and Japan.

In recent years, cooperation between Vietnamese and Japanese businesses has achieved more and more results in the fields of trade, import-export, processing industry... We always identify Japan as an important market. because this is a large export market, ranking 2nd among enterprises in Quang Ninh province. In 2022 alone, export value to Japan accounts for nearly 20% of the total export value of businesses in the province. Therefore, in the coming time, we hope to continue to receive support to promote further cooperation between Quang Ninh province and Japanese provinces to attract investment in e-commerce, logistics, and energy infrastructure. .

At the same time, we hope that Japanese businesses will pay attention to investing and transferring technology in the field of supporting industries, new technology, and environmentally friendly technology. In the field of import and export, we hope to continue to effectively implement free agreements to expand many of the province's strong products exported to Japan such as: Coal, wood, textiles... and other products. Japanese production materials, machinery and equipment to Quang Ninh. We are committed to accompanying and creating the most favorable conditions for businesses to invest successfully, sustainably, and effectively.

We highly appreciate the potential, advantages and business investment environment in Quang Ninh. Therefore, we decided to invest in the project in Amata City Ha Long Industrial Park. Sensor manufacturing project to supply automobile production with a scale of 14.49 million products/year, total investment capital of 832.6 billion VND. Here, we will develop technology and sell technology, create jobs for local workers and promote socio-economic development. In just a short time, with the companionship, support and side by side of departments, branches and localities, we are happy that the project was awarded an investment certificate at the Quang Ninh investment promotion conference - Japan today with the witness of leaders of provinces, agencies and units of Japan and Vietnam.

In the future, we commit to continue prioritizing technological innovation, accompanying local development, and long-term cooperation with Quang Ninh province. We hope to continue to receive support from Quang Ninh province and other departments, branches and localities for Tamagawa in particular and Japanese businesses in general. This will also be an important foundation for the implementation of Tamagawa's projects in Quang Ninh and Vietnam.

We started operating in Vietnam in 1995 and 2014. Of the total 15,000 employees, the Yazaki factory in Quang Ninh has 4,000 people. The decision to open a factory in Dong Mai Industrial Park (Quang Yen Town) is because you possess many favorable factors such as many preferential tax policies; located near the Company's main factory in Hai Phong City; Labor costs and quality of human resources are superior to neighboring localities; The quality of traffic infrastructure is synchronous and continuously improved.

However, from our perspective, besides the positive points, Quang Ninh also has many challenges such as: Attracting many investors leads to increasingly limited human resources for businesses. . The problem of electricity shortage during the hot weather every year has not been stabilized, while this is also an indispensable factor for the production of any business... For Japanese investors to continue investing Investing in Quang Ninh, I hope that the province can soon overcome the above limitations. At the same time, we must promote the construction of social housing, expand tax policies, and have policies to attract high-quality human resources.

With a transparent business environment, oriented towards investors and promoting the spirit of innovation, Quang Ninh is noticed by investors as a new promised land for industrial production. We are really impressed by the vision and strategy of Quang Ninh province. The province has always listened and placed the province's position in the position of businesses and we do not see a gap between the government and businesses. Therefore, we have chosen Quang Ninh as the investment location. Deep C currently has 5 projects with a land fund of nearly 3,400 hectares of industrial land in industrial parks in Quang Ninh province and Hai Phong city.

In Deep C's business strategy, we identify partners, customers and the Japanese market as always holding a strategic position in business direction. Through this conference, we were impressed with the province's methodical organization and the large participation from the authorities and businesses of Hokkaido province. Participating businesses were fully introduced to the potential and strengths of Quang Ninh province and Hokkaido province, creating opportunities for cooperation and connection of investment and trade between the two localities. I hope that, after the conference, Deep C Industrial Park will become a reliable, long-term investment location and partner for Japanese investors.
