Japanese businesses believe Thailand will have prominent role in AEC

BANGKOK, 17 September 2015 (NNT) – Japanese businesses are still confident of making investments in Thailand as it is anticipated that Thailand will play a very prominent role in the Southeast Asia region once the ASEAN Economic Community takes shape, according to the Japanese Chamber of Commerce in Thailand.

Representatives of Japanese businesses met Minister of Commerce Apiradi Tantraporn on Wednesday to discuss trade and investment in Thailand.

Akira Murakoshi, the chamber of commerce's president, said after the meeting that the number of members at the Japanese Chamber of Commerce continued to rise, which implied that Japanese businessmen were still confident in making investment in Thailand.

He suggested that Thailand rapidly make preparations to take advantage of the ASEAN Economic Community integration, as the country is slated to have a prominent role in the region after the AEC is formed.

He also suggested that ASEAN member countries develop standardized goods inspection points to allow transportation of the goods to proceed more swiftly.

Mr. Akira said Japanese businesses were willing to help develop the skills of Thai workers in fields where shortage of manpower remained.

He also suggested that channels to link Thai SMEs with their Japanese counterparts be sought, as the said linkage could provide a valuable tool for stimulating the region's economy.
