[su_highlight background=”#f9fe45″]It seems like this is the moment Indo-Japanese ties was waiting for![/su_highlight] This note is not about analyzing the geo political aspects of the bonhomie or interpreting the nuances of statements made by the respective state heads.
Make no mistake! Indo – Japanese ties are clearly on an upswing. There is a strong under current of positivity & realism to the entire relationship between Asia’s two great nations. India, under PM Modi, has committed itself to a Red Carpet treatment of Japanese investments. Special attention will be given to Japanese investments to ensure that they feel good & safe about investing here.
Learning Japanese is, like we have always emphasized, a very good career option. If you had quality Japanese language skills in your quiver, then you would be ready to fire NOW! In our earlier article on Why Learn Japanese, we have alluded to the growing proximity between the two nations & the consequent opportunities available to bilingual Japanese personnel in India.
A look at the opportunities
- In the next 5 years, close to over 33.58 Billion USD has been promised by Japan into India. To get a perspective, Japanese investment between 2000 & now (2014) was 12 Billion USD investment! So that’s real scaling up.
- These investments could come in Infrastructure, Manufacturing, Defense, Hardware & Software etc to name a few.
- This means a whole host of companies across segments would be coming into India, from Japan.
One doesn’t need to be a rocket scientist to figure out the opportunities that would stem from this, for skilled Japanese bilingual personnel. This could be for all categories of personnel ranging from the non technical to the technically qualified ones.
In case you haven’t yet started your pursuit of learning Japanese , start NOW, lest you regret missing such a great opportunity!
If this is not godsend then what is?
