He briefed the industrialists about the exceptional entrepreneurial skills available in Andhra Pradesh, abundance of natural resources and the advantage of 24x7 power supply.

Indian Ambassador to Japan, Deepa Gopalan Wadhwa, said that “companies from Kansai region can start to make a database on AP industry…so that some collaboration will come to fruition,” she said. Elaborating on the advantages of AP for Japanese firms, the CM said that the state was poised to become the gateway of Southeast Asia and Asia because of our 1,000 km-long coastline. “We can send manufactured goods to countries like Malaysia, Singapore and China. AP aims to become logistics hub by developing 14 ports,” he added. Later Naidu experienced ride in the famed bullet train and travelled from Kyoto to Fukuoka on Tuesday.
