Ho Chi Minh City is seeking support and
cooperation with Aichi prefecture of Japan in auto manufacturing, as the
locality is seen as Japan ’s centre of the auto industry.
Vice
Chairman of the HCM City People’s Committee Le Manh Ha was speaking with
visiting Aichi Governor Ohmura Hideaki and businesses on April 18.
Ha said
he hopes that businesses from Aichi will gain more information and increase
their investment in the city.

city, with a total capital of about $2 billion.

On this
occasion, Ha expressed thanks to Japan in general and Aichi prefecture in
particular, for their contributions to his city’s construction and development
process.

official development assistance from Japan , as a bright example of successful
cooperation between the two countries.
For his
part, Ohmura Hideaki said Aichi hopes to further enhance ties with HCM City and
with Vietnam at large.
Aichi
has paid attention to investment in Vietnam and created conditions for small and
medium-sized enterprises to seek cooperative opportunities in HCM City .
