Aboul Enein Expresses Appreciation for Japanese Government

Prominent businessman Mohamed Aboul Enein, President of the Arab Investors Union and Deputy chairman of the Egyptian-Japanese Business Council, expressed his appreciation for the Japanese government's stance regarding the Palestinian issue.

In his speech during the inauguration of the Arab-Japanese Forum under the auspices of the Arab League, Aboul Enein said that the Japanese people are honest and have civilizational relations with our Arab countries.

“Japan is a friendly country, it has refused to join the list of the countries that considered Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, and didn’t support the US decision in this regard,” the Deputy chairman of the Egyptian-Japanese Business Council noted.

He also hailed the positions of Japan towards Arab issues, as the Japanese government supports justice and peace.

Last month, Aboul Enein attended “Public-Private Business Dialogue” forum held on the sidelines of the 7th Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD7).

In his word before the forum, Aboul Enien stressed that African countries are encouraging investment in infrastructure, transport networks, energy, and internet, establishing free economic zones, and liberating trade as a way to give a strong impetus to industry, which represents Africa’s future.

He also noted that Africa should benefit from the unique Japanese experience in education and training development, through establishing schools, universities, and Japanese training centers in the continent to qualify laborers, localize industries, and discover specialization and creativity skills.
