Japanese Prime Minister
Yoshihide Suga on Friday said that the promotion of digital
transformation and realization of a green society are the key priorities
of his administration amid the continuing Covid-19 pandemic.
Addressing
the virtual Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) CEO Dialogues
hosted by Malaysia on Friday, Suga pledged to tear down bureaucratic
sectionalism, vested interests, and the habit of following past
precedents in the Japanese society while advancing bold regulatory
reforms, reports Xinhua news agency.
The Japanese Prime Minister
reiterated his flagship policies of digital transformation and cutting
greenhouse gas emissions in the country to net zero by 2050.
"As people's behavioural patterns shift due to Covid-19, accelerating digital transformation is crucial.
I
will establish an agency in charge of digital transformation to serve
as a command in the government," Suga said in his video message.
Meanwhile,
the premier said his country would aspire for the Free Trade Area of
the Asia-Pacific through the early conclusion of the Regional
Comprehensive Economic Partnership agreement.
He said Japan would continue to deepen cooperation with the business sector and contribute to the efforts of APEC.
