As a Chairman of the Commercial Committee and a Councilor of the board, I thank the 1st Lt. Gen. Dr. Mustafa Tlass on his permanent supports to the Syrian-Japanese Friendship Association. Moreover, I like to mention to the deep-rooted history of the Syrian-Japanese relationships which have started since the beginning of the Silk Road. Really, I also thank our friends in Japan in all authorities and levels on their support and cooperation on strengthening the relations and working on their persistency which have started, as I have mentioned before, since the date of the commercial road that the forefathers of the friendly people and ours have crossed. Therefore, I invite all the special and general activities which have commercial relationships with Japan to share in reviving this tradition and supporting it by increasing the commercial exchange to be a new Silk Road in our current century that is full of love, peace, and prosperity.
Likewise, I invite our friends, the Japanese, to consolidate and support the commercial activities in regaining the historical Asian glory. Then, our association is perpetually ready to confirm the economical and interactive projects between Syria and Japan.
Finally, we hope, in our future projects and plans, to receive the largest number of the beneficiaries in the two countries and to establish for successful projects.
