Dear Friends of the EBC,<\/p>\n

On Thursday 10 December, the EBC has, together with the American and the Canadian Chambers of Commerce, issued a statement on the need for the Japanese Government to better engage with the foreign residents in Japan<\/u><\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This was made against the backdrop of the travel restrictions that were introduced in April of this year and then gradually eased. However, as the statement also points out, some differences in the treatment between Japanese nationals and non-Japanese residents are still in effect.<\/p>\n

On the same day, the EBC held its last Briefing of the year on de-carbonisation<\/strong>, with speakers from the EU and Japan authorities and from the private sector. Please read the overview and some of the available presentations<\/a> if you were not able to attend this online event.<\/p>\n

Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga took up office on 16 September. He already announced that the country will be carbon-neutral by 2050, has focused on digitization and regulatory reform and recently signed RCEP, Asia\u2019s largest free trade zone. If you want to understand what the first three months of his administration hint for the rest of his term as Prime Minister, please join the Austrian Business Council\u2019s webinar<\/strong><\/a> today!<\/p>\n

We wish you a good reading and hope you stay positive and healthy during this difficult time.<\/p>\n

On 10 December 2020, the EBC organised its fourth briefing of the year on de-carbonisation. The briefing was held as a webinar. In addition to opening remarks by the EBC President, Michael Mroczek and EU Ambassador Patricia Flor, presentations were given by Heidi Hiltunen from the EU Delegation and Kaname Ogawa from the Agency for Natural Resources and Energy, METI. Ms. Hiltunen and Mr. Ogawa offered titbits on what the EU and Japan are doing to achieve carbon-neutrality by 2050.<\/p>\n

From the EBC, five representatives from various committees gave their views and insights into what is happening in their sector in regard to de-carbonisation, both in the EU and in Japan.<\/p>\n
