WELCOME MESSAGE FROM THE AMBASSADOR

 

It is my sincere pleasure to welcome you to the official website of the Embassy of the Arab Republic of Egypt in Tokyo , Japan . Here you will find basic information about Egypt and its people, its politics, economy, tourist attractions, and the latest developments regarding Egyptian / Japanese relations as well as the latest activities of the Embassy to further strengthen the bilateral relationship between our two countries.

The friendship between Egypt and Japan is a strong one that dates back to the mid-nineteenth century. Throughout the years, Japan has been a reliable friend and an important partner of Egypt ever since diplomatic relations were established between our two countries in 1922. This relationship is built on a solid foundation of mutual respect and admiration, and the boundaries for its future growth are limitless. We have a lot to learn from each other, with Japan providing a shining example as an unrivalled success story built around its national identity and cultural values, and Egypt providing an unparalleled strategic prism to Africa, the Arab World and the wider Middle East.

And while we have already taken major strides to forge a truly strategic and dynamic relationship between Egypt and Japan , there is still much more that can be done. We are especially keen to further build on the people to people exchanges that we are privileged to enjoy with Japan . And here I hope that each visitor to this website will be inspired to participate in this important endeavor.

The website, however, can only provide you with a glimpse of what Egypt has to offer, and I would thus encourage you to use it as your first stop to come and visit Egypt itself and experience it firsthand. Whether you are a tourist interested in Egypt 's ancient civilization, or an investor seeking rewarding opportunities in Egypt 's diversified economy, or a scholar seeking to learn more about Egypt and the Middle East, Egypt will provide you with all your needs and will be a destination that will truly be unforgettable.

With my best regards
Ambassador
