President Hichilema touched down at about 22:30 Japan Standard Time, aboard an Emirates Boeing 312, at Haneda International Airport in Tokyo, Japan.
The Head of State was received by Japan’s State Minister for Foreign Affairs, Hisayuki Fujii, and Japanese Ambassador to Zambia, Takeuchi Kazuyuki, Zambia’s Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation Mulambo Haimbe, Zambia’s Ambassador to Japan Tobias Mulimbika among other senior government officials from both Zambia and Japan.
Government officials who accompanied the President included Minister of Infrastructure, Housing and Urban Development, Charles Milupi and Minister of Commerce Trade and Industry Chipoka Mulenga.
While in Japan, the Head of State is expected to have an official meeting with the Prime Minister of Japan, Ishiba Shigeru, and also pay a courtesy call on the Emperor of Japan His Majesty Naruhito.
President Hichilema will also undertake strategic meetings with multinational companies in the cities of Nagoya and Kyoto.
President Hichilema is also expected to address the Zambia Japan Business Forum which has attracted the attendance of Zambian business players and investors from Japanese investors.
This visit provides Zambia with a platform to deepen bilateral cooperation and explore new opportunities in trade, renewable energy, healthcare, and education.
I hope Japanese vehicle assembly plants in Zambia are on the agenda. We’re strategically located for that, with easy markets in the DRC and other countries surrounding us. Not forgetting power technologies!
Even abroad state house to land at an airport with letter H?
Haneda International Airport.
Ku cundu!!
Why not start your own car manufacturing? Assembly plants have been taken by the Chinese and you are too late, you wont compete with them. However, there’s still need for vehicles suited to the African terrain. Where are our so-called engineers? This is the time to answer the challenge!!
Ground Breaking, Historic, resounding sucess hopefully
Hope zambians can benefit from all these trips
With big delegations at tax payers cost at a time when the economy is not doing well with
The loadshedding at its peak and floods.
Trump has suspended AID for 90 days, after which he will restore it. If the US completes ends AID, it loses influence. You think that without the pressure of US AID, Zambia would have ceded that mine whose copper content is 10x richer than the normal case to Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos? Zambia has all the minerals you need to make electric car batteries. This is why the Japanese are rolling out the red carpet for HH. China is killing everyone in that EV industry. China supplanted Japan as the biggest car exporter last year, and the Japanese are clearly eyeing the resources of Zambia in their fight against China….
How is this even news…..TRUMP SAYS NO MORE BEGGING BOWL
I responded but was censored. This certainly isnt news except for State Broadcasters who run on bootlicking the leadership. They specialise in telling us useless headlines like: “Hakainde has woken up today!” The President has coughed” Or “HH has drunk his first sip of Japanese water!” Who intheir right minds would want to listen to news articles like those?

Trump is a person who will put you in your place 🙂
It’s remarkable to reflect on the historical roots of Toyota, which was born from the Japanese government’s vision for automotive innovation in the aftermath of World War II. The initiative to compete with American vehicles, like the Jeep, showcases how necessity can drive creativity and industry.
Toyota Motor Company started before World War 2. Before that, it was a maker of cotton looms, and the logo of Toyota is thought to be representative of a cotton thread. The Japanese government had little to do with development of Toyota
The post-war interactions, including American generals investigating Japan’s agricultural advancements, highlight the impressive yields from small land areas an inspiration for agricultural practices worldwide.
Japanese archive all this because they don’t cut corners and do everything to the best of their ability and more………….
They have passion in everything they do……..that is the key

The Sapporo Snow Festival in Japan, will run from Feb. 4, 2025 to the 11th, the curry buns will be sold at Co-op Sapporo stores. Hopefully our President, President HH will attend. Can you come with same curry bans, Mr. President?
SAPPORO–The annual Sapporo Snow Festival, one of the nation’s biggest winter events, is to be held online for the second straight year due to the rapid spread of the Omicron variant of COVID-19 in Hokkaido after the turn of the year, the executive committee announced.
Africans need to embrace the Asian/Chinese/oriental model of education………..
The western one has failed us , almost completely……….

what is the difference between the two types of education? The Chinese and the Japanese got their education from the West.
You dont even know what you’re talking about. The Chinese education system isnt similar to the Japanese. The South Asians have their own different systems with a great focus on internal solutions. For example, having stayed in Thailand I found they didnt want to compare themselves with Malaysians. The only similarity they have is a 6 years primary school and three years junior and three years senior secondary school system.
also he should engage Japan in medical fields . They are good in dealing with neural surgeon like stroke etc so I hear. They need to help our doctors in that Area
