Mochizuki Hisanobu, the Japanese Ambassador to Ghana, has assured the readiness of his country to play an active role in the transformation of the Ghanaian economy.
Delivering a speech at the launch of the JICA Chair Studies Short Course at the University of Ghana, Ambassador Mochizuki noted that while Ghana has made some gains in its economy, there still remain some huge gaps that Japan could help address.
He noted that the JICA program is a clear platform for developing nations like Ghana to leverage and learn from the success stories of Japan.
Mochizuki Hisanobu appealed to students, government officials, and other leaders of the country to avail themselves of the studies and incorporate the developmental principles and projects of Japan into the country's economic development plans. "In comparison to the situation ten years ago, you have achieved remarkable progress, but you still have a lot of challenges and things to do for the further development of Ghana.
