“I strongly believe the future (relationship) is very strong\u2026 so many things to do to strengthen the economy of the two\u00a0countries, so we need to focus on the new generation to create new leaders in the two countries,”<\/em>\u00a0said Nagano, who is also\u00a0Tokio Marine Holdings Inc chairman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

JAMECA was established in 1977 with the objectives to foster friendship and promote close and harmonious economic relations between Japan and Malaysia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
