Ambassador of Japan to Bangladesh Iwama Kiminori said on Thursday that the Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA) and the Public Private Economic Dialogues (PPED) between Japan and Bangladesh are the two organs to move forward the business environment in the years to come.

“We have to move forward to the continual dialogue between the two governments on the business environment,” he said.

The ambassador said this while speaking as the chief guest at the opening ceremony of the new office of HmAC on Wednesday.

He also uncovered a book “Taxation Handbook for Investors in Bangladesh” prepared by Howlader Maria & Co.

Japan recognises the paramount significance of Bangladesh's development acknowledging its role in shaping the business destiny, he said.

A growing number of companies are redirecting their focus to Bangladesh. Japan Bangladesh Chambers & Commerce of Industry (JBCCI) and JETRO Bangladesh offer valuable advice to companies in navigating the complexity of Bangladesh.

The synergistic collaboration between the Japanese Business Circle along with the embassy of Japan is manifested through a concerted effort to ensure a comprehensive and seamless support structure for companies venturing into Bangladesh, according to a press release.
