At the meeting, Vice Chairwoman Nguyen Thi Hoang informed the delegation about the socio-economic situation of the province and the status of attracting foreign investment in the area. She further mentioned that the province has established the Japan Desk (previously the Kansai Desk) to support administrative investment procedures and address any arising issues during the investment and project implementation process in Dong Nai. Additionally, the province organizes annual dialogue conferences with businesses and conducts investment and trade promotion activities in Japan to provide information, attract investment, and address business concerns.

Mr. Nozaki Takao stated that JCCH currently has 1,057 Japanese member businesses, divided into 13 groups based on their field and area of operation, with over 140 Japanese businesses investing in Dong Nai. JCCH is the third largest Japanese business association among the 100 Japanese business associations abroad (following the associations in Shanghai and Bangkok).
He also noted that the cooperation model of Japan in Dong Nai, with the establishment of a Coordinating Group for Industrial Support Development and the organization of Vietnam-Japan business trade conferences since 2017, has been very successful and effective. Through the trade conference held in 2023, eight Vietnamese businesses became partners and suppliers for Japanese businesses. Therefore, JCCH intends to expand this cooperation model to other provinces and cities and hopes that Dong Nai will continue to accompany and support this effort.
