Sato said that his group has 30 domestic subsidiary companies and 60 foreign branches. He expressed his wish to invest in Vietnam, particularly in Ha Nam province due to its attractive investment policies.

Mai Tien Dung, Chairman of Ha Nam province’s People Committee affirmed that the province has always provided preferential policies for Japanese businesses’ projects. Ha Nam has properly implemented ten commitments towards investors over the years including the provision of standard infrastructure and human resources, as well as ensuring security for businesses and providing entertainment and health services for experts.

A hotline has been set up to make it easier for the provincial People’s Chairman to connect with investors, Dung said, while hoping that Suido Kiko Kaisha and Toray Group will invest and bring hi-tech industries to the locality.

Toray is willing to help Ha Nam strengthen connectivity with Japan’s localities. Many of Suido Kiko Kaisha’s partners have already paid special attention to Vietnam and Ha Nam in particular, he said.

The same day, the Japanese general director also toured several Japanese businesses operating in the locality to learn more about investment policies.
