'Japan hopes for more economic and military ties with India'

As an economic force, India is like a mammoth elephant which is growing bigger and bigger everyday and we are looking forward to having more economic and military ties between the two countries. This is what Kazushige Hiraishi, the vice consul at the consulate general of Japan in Mumbai said about the present status of Indo-Japan relations.

Here to preside over the second All India Bonsai convention and Exhibition, which is being organized by Vadodara's Banyan Bonsai Club in collaboration with Bonsai Study group of the Indo-Japanese Association, aided by the Japanese government, Kazushige Hiraishi met TOI on the sidelines of the conference to talk about Indo-Japan ties.

"We hope that Mr Singh (Indian PM Dr Manmohan Singh) is able to visit Japan in the near future. We are looking forward to his visit," the vice consul said in connection with the recently cancelled visit of PM to Japan. Indo-Japan relations are now 60 years old and are expected to grow further in future, he added.
