  • 2020 Annual Report
    Hokkaido International Exchange and Cooperation Center 2020 Annual Report Hokkaido International Exchange and Cooperation Center (HIECC) History of HIECC The northern regions concept and the establishment of the Northern Regions Center The northern regions concept was first introduced in 1971 in the Third-term Hokkaido Comprehensive Development Plan (– 1977), a long-term road map for the development of Hokkaido. This concept aimed to improve Hokkaido’s industrial economy, the lives of Hokkaido residents and its culture and advance local development suitable to the northern region through exchanges with the United States, Canada and Northern European countries with highly developed cultures in the same snowy cold climate as that of Hokkaido. As a body to promote this concept, the Northern Regions Research Council was established along with the aforementioned comprehensive development plan. The council was approved as an incorporated body in January 1972, and the Northern Regions Information Center was also established in November 1976. These organizations were developmentally reorganized, and the Northern Regions Center (NRC) was launched in April 1978. NRC developed wide exchange activities that focus on northern regions as a unique international organization with think tank, data bank and exchange functions. In July of the same year, the Northern Regions Exchange Foundation was also established to provide financial support to private exchange programs with northern regions. Expansion of international exchange and cooperation activities The marked progress of globalization from the 1990s onward further intensified interdependent relationships in the international community, and raised expectations for international cooperation in local communities. While maintaining existing relationships with northern countries, NRC also partly revised its articles of incorporation in June 1995 to expand the scope of its activities to other regions.

  • Toward the Future of the Transportation Networks
    Toward the Future of the Transportation Networks - Corporate Profile - JRTT Assists Railways and Coastal Shipping Shinkansen bullet trains substantially shorten travel times and encourage the revitalization of regional economies. Urban railways uphold our cities and make them more appealing. Coastal shipping supports lifestyles and industry by safely transporting people and supplies. Each of these transportation infrastructure components are vital toward ensuring continued convenience for society. To ensure the future of our transportation network, we must continue to provide assistance in transportation infrastructure—social capital that belongs to the whole of society. JRTT Provides Integrated Shinkansen Construction Railway construction requires massive initial investments and long construction periods. Therefore, it is extremely difficult for modern private companies to assume the risks in the time between investing and recovering capital. In addition, railway construction comprises an aggregation of various specialized skills. To successfully create the systems that ultimately provide safe, secure railway transportation, organizations with comprehensive technical capacity must manage all aspects to properly exhibit each specialized skill, including accounting, contracts, land, civil engineering, tracks, electricity, buildings and machinery. Toward that end, JRTT provides integrated construction of the Shinkansen lines based on a scheme using financial resources such as the rail access charge after construction has finished and public
