Tokyo: Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is on a five-day official visit to Japan, on Tuesday addressed the Japan India Association here.
Here are the key points of his speech:
Like India has a 'Look East' Policy it seems Japan has 'Look at India' policy
I recall the efforts of former PM Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee to strengthen India-Japan relations
I have come here to assure you that if you have to look anywhere outside Japan, you do not need to look here or there
I have come to assure you that there is no Red Tape but Red Carpet in India. We have eased off lot of regulations
I do not think there is any place better than India for you
When I was small, if it was said 'Made in Japan' we did not have to think twice. We would buy the product
There is no better place than India for Japanese business
We want to encourage and invite SMEs, small scale industries
Come & invest in India: Only place you can find democracy, demography & demand
India has a government that is working on development, to increase manufacturing
