Just concluded two productive days in Tokyo, meeting with customers and technology partners. Japan continues to lead the way in technology innovation, which is crucial for our next generation of products (and how to use the next generation of capital equipment and manufacturing technology to build them). It's always amazing to see how a city of over 20 million people can be so well organized. And finally let's not forget the opportunity to stock up on some incredible stationary! #Tokyo #TechnologyInnovation #Productivity #Travel #photonicprocceses #semiconductorprocesses

I recently had the opportunity to participate in an insightful online Q&A for the September issue of ASEANFocus, a key publication by the ISEAS Yusof-Ishak Institute. The exchange delved into the prospects of ASEAN-Japan relations. Reflecting on our 50-year partnership, I encapsulated our shared journey in three terms: coexistence, cooperation, and mutual understanding. As we pivot toward the future, I advocate for the narrative of "co-creation," built on a bedrock of mutual trust, to characterize the forthcoming decades. Japan's distinct advantage stems from its historical dedication to valuing and accommodating diverse standpoints, its penchant for collaborative problem-solving, and its preference for quality over sheer numbers. These principles resonate with ASEAN’s own ambitions, presenting a synergistic path forward. #ASEANFocus #ASEANJapan50 #ASEANJapanRelations #CoCreation
