The Prime Minister, Narendra Modi has tweeted in Japanese for the first time with the help of Japanese volunteers to directly connect with the people of Japan. The tweet in English translation is:
“On 30th August I will begin my visit to Japan. I am keenly looking forward to the visit, which will boost relations between our two nations.
Japan visit will be my 1st bilateral visit outside the subcontinent. I was to visit in early July but could not due to Parliament session.
I see the Japan visit as an opportunity to take our ties with Japan to a new level and increase cooperation in various fields.
I will visit Tokyo & Kyoto and will interact with all sections of Japanese society from students, political leaders to captains of industry.
