He said that he frequently keeps track of news and economic indicators released by Nikkei.

Expressing his trust in the prospect of bilateral ties, particularly in the fields of economy, trade and investment, the PM hopes that Nikkei would continue accompanying the development of Vietnam-Japan ties.

Okada, for his part, thanked the PM for delivering a speech at the Conference on the Future of Asia held in Tokyo in June.
