In fact, “If it America! Here’s the news I want to share is …..” did not appear in Khabbar, then it did not happen in North America” is the slogan Khabbar uses to get the news. Well, that shows, the Khabbar Slogan has an impact on the community or does it really !?!

  • Remarks of Ambassador Hiramatsu at the Bengal Global Business Summit 2017 on 20Th January 2017
    Remarks of Ambassador Hiramatsu at the Bengal Global Business Summit 2017 on 20th January 2017 Honourable President of India, His Excellency Mr. Pranab Mukherjee, Honourable Governor of West Bengal, Mr. Keshari Nath Tripathi, Honourable Chief Minister of West Bengal, Ms. Mamata Banerjee, Distinguished guests, Ladies and gentlemen, First of all, let me congratulate Hon'ble Chief Minister and your team for successfully organising this colossal event. It is my great pleasure to be here at the inauguration of the third chapter of Bengal Global Business Summit as a Partner Country representative. Japan-India special strategic global partnership has witnessed constant and steady development. Our two Prime Ministers share the same futuristic vision and have established firm mutual trust. I would say we are enjoying the strongest relations between the two countries ever in the history. The government of Japan and Japanese companies are contributing to the policy of the government of India such as Make in India, Skill India, Digital India, and Clean India. Japan is also focusing on enhancing connectivity in the Indo-Pacific region. Last year Prime Minister Abe announced the "Free and Open Indo-Pacific Strategy", under which we will promote the confluence of "the two seas" and "the two continents" spreading from the Pacific Ocean and to the Indian Ocean. West Bengal is the centre of the connecting point between India and South East Asia. The BIMSTEC area surrounding the Bay of Bengal has huge potential for economic development. To this end, improving the connectivity in this area is critical. Japan is assisting improvement of connectivity, with projects such as road development in the north-east; and the initiative of the Bay of Bengal Industrial Growth-Belt in Bangladesh.
