Tokyo, August 29 – In a heartfelt and visionary address from Tokyo, Prime Minister Narendra Modi reaffirmed the enduring bond between India and Japan, stating that the two nations are not just allies—but architects of the future. “Together, India and Japan will shape the Asian century,” he said, signaling a renewed call for stability, growth, and prosperity across the continent.
As he addressed the India-Japan Economic Forum, PM Modi emphasized a message full of hope and ambition: “In India, capital does not just grow—it multiplies.” His statement wasn’t merely economic jargon—it was a reflection of a new India brimming with potential, driven by innovation, and grounded in trust.
With warmth and confidence, Modi described how Japan’s unmatched technological excellence, when combined with India’s vast scale and human talent, could spark an era of mutual growth. “The technology of Japan and the talent of India can together lead the technology revolution of this century,” he said, drawing enthusiastic nods from a room full of business leaders and visionaries.
This visit comes at a pivotal time—amid global uncertainties and shifting trade dynamics. Modi assured Japanese investors of India’s political and economic stability, underscoring the nation’s commitment to transparency and predictability in governance.
He highlighted bold strides India is taking in cutting-edge fields like artificial intelligence, quantum computing, biotechnology, semiconductors, and space research—areas ripe for collaboration. “India is the fastest-growing major economy in the world. Very soon, we will become the third-largest economy globally,” he said, reflecting a nation on the move.
More than just numbers and policies, Modi’s speech carried a deep human element—an invitation to dream big, together. He called India the “springboard” for Japanese businesses to access the Global South, particularly Africa, where both countries could uplift communities and create shared prosperity.
From metros to manufacturing, semiconductors to start-ups, he said the India-Japan partnership has become a symbol of deep mutual trust. He urged both nations to extend their collaborative spirit beyond the auto sector into robotics, nuclear energy, and shipbuilding.
As the two-day visit unfolds, it’s clear: this is not just diplomacy—it’s a shared mission to lead the world into a future where innovation meets humanity.
