Event Detail

The Asia Business Committee would like to invite its members to a

general meeting to discuss two important topics:



1. It has only been about 90 days, the equivalent of one business

quarter, since the Tohoku disaster. While we may feel as though normalcy

has return for those of us living and doing business in Japan, could

there be economic aftershocks for us in the near future? We will be

discussing the affects of the Tohoku disaster in terms of Japan's

relationship with countries in Asia, and vice versa. From this

discussion, the objective is to identify important topics that will

provide perspective on future direction in the Asia Pacific region for

speaking events during the second half of 2011.



2. Review the situation with regards to the Trans-Pacific Partnership

and Japan's possible participation. While the politicians argue over

whose turn it is to be Prime Minister, etc., others in Japan see the TTP

as an important step to involving Japan more deeply in the future

economic growth of the Asia Pacific region.



We would also like to encourage our new committee members to join us so

we can hear your thoughts and ideas.
