Aso met earlier with Prime Minister Ferenc Gyurcsány and Economics Minister János Kóka, who described the government’s efforts to improve opportunities for Japanese businesspersons.
Hungarian FM Kinga Göncz, speaking at the same news conference, said that problems surrounding residence permit renewals, recognition of drivers’ licenses, and dual social insurance payments affecting Japanese business officials living in Hungary appeared to be resolved.
Aso said Japan believes that the Visegrád Four countries – Hungary, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, and Poland – can play a role in a new value-oriented foreign policy scheme his country initiated last November. (english.mti.hu)
