The Japanese Prime Minister was received by Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw at the airport. Kishida will stay in India for the next two days and is slated to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi for bilateral talks today, besides participating in the 14th India- Japan Annual Summit.
APEC is a platform for 21 Pacific Rim member economies (lands around the rim of the Pacific Ocean) that promotes free trade throughout the Asia-Pacific region.
Modi said, "India is a land of possibilities with excellent human resources and a technological base and Japan has been there at every turning point. The growth in Index of Industrial Production (IIP) numbers reflects that India is a country of opportunities."
The focus of the visit will be on forging greater synergies between two major Asian economies and take forward the special strategic ties.
