The Director of the Foreign Investment Promotion Agency of BiH (FIPA) Gordan Milinić received the newly appointed Ambassador of Bosnia and Herzegovina in Japan, HE Borislav Marić in order to inform him about the activities of the Agency intending to attract foreign investments, promote the country and its resources, and on previous experience in work with potential Japanese investors.
The Ambassador
Maric was made familiarized with the cooperation of FIPA and Embassy of Japan
in BiH which goes to replace Japanese humanitarian assistance to Japanese
investments and new jobs for the citizens of BiH. As a result of this cooperation,
in October last year, BiH was visited by a large group of potential Japanese
investors, with whom FIPA has intensive contacts in order to finally see realisation
of Japanese investments.
FIPA expects
from all BiH Ambassadors that the economic diplomacy is a priority in their
work, that they work on bringing investors into the country and on increasing
exports from BiH.
Mr Milinić
wished to the Ambassador a successful mission with a desire to realize as many
contacts with potential investors from Japan who will be oriented toward FIPA
for realizing their investments.
The Ambassador
was also suggested to establish contact with the representative of FIPA in
Japan, which has contributed greatly to the export of local wine to the
Japanese market, as well as the promotion of BiH as a tourist destination.
