- Japan is investing in infrastructure to alleviate the economic bottlenecks in ASEAN countries. In Indonesia, it’s building the country’s first MRT project. In Vietnam, it has invested in a network of roads, rail, ports and energy infrastructure. And in the Philippines, it's investing in a flood mitigation project. What do these projects have in common? And why has Japan chosen to invest in them?

Japan is now building a first subway metro in Philippines
Japanese built Washington DC metro system had nothing but troubles !
One thing that surprises me is, from reading the comments, many people think that Japan just begins to invest in region to compete with China. Actually, Japan has been investing in the region massively since the 80s. Thanks to 1985 Plaza Accord, Yen value increased and Japan had to invest oversea for lower production cost. During that period, Japan invested massively in Thailand, Malaysia Indonesia and other countries. With Japanese investment, many countries developed and moved from lower income to middle income countries. Japan also invested in many infrastructure project. Even there is the competition from China and South Korea in last decades, Japan is still one of the biggest invester in Southeast Asia.
Wrong! The Plaza Accord stop the economic growth of Japan bcos the US does not tolerate Asian country to compete with US economic power and hegemony. The Accord deliberately caused the Japanese Yen to rise significantly making Japan exports more expensive in US, thus causing a fatal blow to Japan's economy, especially the automotive and electronic Industry. This accelerated into stagnation, known as the Lost Decade. So, for over 30 yrs Japan had remained stagnant. Even reducing interest rate cannot spur economic growth. Japan Central Bank is at a loss. Why? That's your homewk. I'm not doing your macroeconomics homewk for you. Then the US used FCPA (Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the long arm jurisdiction to bully foreign companies under the guise of economic sanctions, nothing to do with corruptions) to block and steal Toshiba technology, just as they did to Alstom of France. They tried with Huawei but failed. Then tried to ban TikTok in US unless it is acquired by US company. It still failed! US can bully and steal Japan's and France's technology but they cannot do it to China. Until today, Japan is forced to buy US Treasury bills/long term bonds to sustain US national debt, still rising and counting at 31.4 TRILLION $. That's why US can continue printing the $ to support its 800 military bases around the world to fund perpetual wars globally and buy imported goods, oil and food. They export inflation to other countries. The US$ is not supported by the gold reserve (abolished in 1971 by Pres Nixon). Long story short, it is just a piece of paper based on trust by US govt. How long do you think this can continue? Printing Monopoly Money to buy imports and increasing military spending yr after yr. They need wars to sustain it.
You are 100% correct for the history , but currently Japan is force to follow Washington agenda. They are not rich anymore, after harvest heavily by its master.
The thing was, Japan always thought that it is a European country , higher class then Asia people.
Around 30 years ago, Malaysia PM talk to Japan on the train project in SEA, but rejected by Japan.
China actually taking the same plan now and try to make it happen.
But of cause China here to make profit also.
I reckon, it’s win win situation If not The Japanese investor, some other country would stepped up earlier in this region anyway. Japan also save labour cost. People got work and move from lower to middle income.
@@happymelon7129 does the China plan include Malaysia giving up waters to China?

Ive been to Vietnam back in the early 2000's. The huge economic strides it has made from then to now are absolutely insane and visible.
The good memories of the late Shinzo Abe...
Japan infrastructures are more stronger, they’re more transparent and can be trusted more than China.
well said 😊
Japan can be trusted? Selective amnesia.
BS. The Japanese built a bridge in Vietnam back in 2007. During the construction, the bridge collapsed resulted over 200 casualties.
Thank you for this two-part excellent documentary series.I enjoyed watching both the parts.Keep making such informative documentaries.Thank you❤️.
Japan is the best country when it comes to helping other countries.
That is if you disregard the period from 1937 to 1945 when Japan caused other Asian nations trillion of losses and near 100 million life in their Asia conquest. In fact Asian nation lossed almost every valuable things due to Japanese exploitation except empty land for the next 20 years.

@@saladinchimaev-1643 Why republic poor? From which country are you?
i love japan from ph...
Good stuff.
Good timing for my retirement back in Manila. By then subway is built. Ortigas has 2 subway station
Japan's approach to foreign infrastructure development is so radically different from China's Belt & Road Initiative. Japan required Indonesia to spend only 30% of the funding on Japanese components, so Indonesia was able to use a lot of local labor and suppliers. China typically uses almost exclusively Chinese construction firms with Chinese materials, Chinese components, Chinese labor, and puts virtually no money into the local economy. And the care and thoughtful planning Japan put into typhoon flood mitigation in the Philippines is a stark contrast to the reckless, slapdash, "tofu dreg" construction Chinese firms are infamous for - just look at all the dams, hydroelectric plants, and other BRI mega projects around the world that are now falling apart.
Agreed, the number one drawback to signing up for a PRC megaproject is quality and maintenance. What you save up front you lose 3x over in repair or outright failure down the road
If the terms are as good as you claimed, why did Indonesia offered it to China? Dam falling apart are just in your dreams!
@@pahatpahat9566 I think there are serious concerns about quality assurance issues in many Chinese megaprojects but the advantage is that they come at a better price. Of course, projects vary by location and some may be decent. We can only speak in generalities.
About time Japan......Took you long enough!!!! Also Vietnam looks beautiful
Why is Manila Subway not reported? It is under construction as we speak.
Funfact: the boring machine for a section of Jakarta MRT Phase 2 is made in Kawasaki Factory in China. See, both countries have their pieces of the cake if they want cooperation rather than conflict.

23:50.. "first think about the people living in the country.. and then how to benefit Japan"
Excellent! Japan is the ivy league of international partners for domestic infrastructure projects. They do not have to advertise their abilities. They are.. a brand that countries naturally gravitate to when they want the best short-term results without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
China is too noisily showing off its dying belt and road projects while Japan is calm whilst helping its neighbor countries for decades... without the debt trap
True. 私たちを信じてくれてありがとう
min 10:00 - this lady said it clearly - Japan terms are much more expensive and less ownership for Jakarta.
Who do you want to sell your soul to the japanese or chinese?
China is always cheaper at first sight. Take a good look

ASEAN COUNTRIES HAS A HUGE CONSUMERS AND THE MIDDLE CLASS IS GROWING. INDUSTRIALIZED COUNTRIES LIKE JAPAN WOULD GAIN A HUGE PROFIT FOR THEIR INVESTMENT IN THE REGION.

@@kangbule The delays were not due to Japan but due to local politics. Don't you read geopolitical analyses? Go lick your daddy China's balls. Japan is here to stay and China is dying due to COVID, Housing Market and population disaster. China will no longer exist in next 300 years

Whether it's from Japan, China, the US or the European Union, as long as the project is mutually beneficial, Indonesia is very open to anyone.

But Japan going to create Godzilla...
On the 26th, the National Assembly of South Korea held the "Foreign Experts Invited Seminar on Fukushima Nuclear Wastewater Discharge". A panel of scientists told the meeting that the data provided to them by Japan was incomplete, inappropriate, incoherent, inaccurate and unsuitable for any decision.
"Hankyoreh" stated on the 27th that the Pacific Islands Forum (PIF) scientist group participated by 18 Pacific island countries, including New Zealand and Fiji, pointed out at the "Fukushima Nuclear Wastewater Discharge Overseas Experts Invited Seminar" that Japan's Tokyo Electric Power Company Nuclear Power Co., Ltd. Wastewater testing data cannot be used as the basis for determining discharge.
Yes. Japan is going to create godzilla and the US will create kingkong. We better keep an eye on these 2.

@@superkas you grow as a nation by creating Godzilla and Kingkong!
@@happymelon7129 How is that in any way related to the topic dumbass. Should we talk about Chinese housing collapse, covid disaster, cheap non functional cars?
It’s better for Asian countries to collaborate with Japan than china. The fact that quality and business practice is more reliable.

@9:40 - "China offered a 40% Chinese ownership and 60% Indonesian ownership whereas with Japan it was more sort of a B2B arrangement without a JV. Japan wanted the Indonesian gov to provide financial guarantee while the Chinese guarantee didnt want any". Wow! such an eye opener on who is fooling who!?
100%, Japan even don't want a technology transfer after the project, China has no problem doing that, we can see Japan is only care about the money, the more Capitalist they got the more they have zero chance to compete with China.

Where is Asia Pacific region, now?
Japanese investment in the Philippines is at par with any ASEAN block without funfare
I wish Shinzo Abe still alive... He was a great visionary leader when it comes to Indo Pacific region... and he was pushing japanese investers to invest in India..

A New Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere (Japanese: 大東亜共栄圏, Hepburn: Dai Tōa Kyōeiken).
A brilliant win-win approach by japan 👏👏👏. The recipient country will be handed out with loans and technical assistance, and will also eventually have its profoundly essential infrastructure needed. The benefactor country (japan) will earn from loan interest payments, and japanese companies will profit from the funding provided as they do the actual construction. "Walang tapon (no wastage)" as we say it in filipino 🇵🇭🤝🇯🇵
At the current rate, it looks like Japan is out of gas! Her HSR project in UK and India seem undeliverable within the time span agreed! Hence, I think all the ADB plans, basically Japanese's are unlikely to take off!
maybe your government and Japan should negotiate with that !! its impossible that both countries cant help Japan!!
@@pahatpahat9566 Japan is invested in hundreds of projects the world over. Just because there is a delay in one project does not necessarily mean that every other project falls short or even apart. Besides, major projects have to some degree a history of delays, which is therefore nothing unusual.
Edit: Why are you spamming your comment everywhere, even if it is completely out of context?! You are clearly a Chinese bot or Wumao, that has envy and hate for Japan and tries to denigrate it, but at the same time tries to make China look good. You won't succeed Wumao, the truth always wins, the good will always come on top of the evil. The global community is aware of China's horrible, dishonest and egregious actions. Japan on the other hand, is well regarded, a trustworthy partner and friend the world over. No lie you spread will ever change that!
@@Kenny-yl9pc , if you are Jap die-hard, I couldn't care less! I am talking about facts, they show the falling inability of Japan to do what she used to be good at! If the whole world is just like you towards China, then there won't be any US reaction towards China especially in Africa!
@@pahatpahat9566 maybe it is because UK and India are not a priority. Japan needs to focus on the pacific and counter the influence of china. UK and India were not under china's influence
Rising tension in Asia Pacific. Thailand will see the Indian Ocen opportunities and work more closely with another group BIMSTEC (Bay of Bengal Initiative for Multi-Sectoral Technical and Economic Cooperation). 26% of the world's population is here. That's the old information for Thailand. Japan should update the news. They always act more slowly than China in terms of investment in Thailand. Our’s new long-term strategy is the Southern Economic Corridor Project. It calls “The Land Bridge Megaproject” which will connect Chumphon province on the eastern coast of the Gulf of Thailand to Ranong province on the Andaman Sea, will become a major transit port, with a capacity rivalling Hong Kong. We don't use Dewei port anymore.
Excellent strategy! It actually dated back to 1940s, which was termed "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere", inclusive of Northeast and Southeast Asia. The vision was immensely challenged in the early days with partners hesitation and outside military intervention causing unanticipated integration delays. Now the obstacles are behind and the strategy is well understood and enthusiastically actioned. Tenno Heika Banzai! Tenno Heika Banzai!
only without the Japanese genocidal mania. The "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere" was bullshit. It was colonialism with a Japanese face.
Exactly.
JAPAN PROJECTS TO OTHER COUNTRIES ARE WIN WIN . . UNLIKE CHINA

Domo arrigato to our dear everlasting and true Japanese friends.
The good thing about japan is that they promote freedom of trade. They study if the projects they will do will really help the country. And they have the low interest rate.
Exactly! This is also true of the US (not sure of the interest rate part). Unfortunately, many countries -- particularly African nations -- see the US as being patronizing, when, in fact, all the US attempts to do is see the countries that it does business with bring up their standards and become self-sustaining.

Didn't Japan already try to build an 'economic corridor' in SEA in the 1940's? I think it was called the Death Railway.
If you read ADB's plan for the Mekong Sub-Region, Japan together with India should have had built all the rail-road connectivity from India via Bangladesh-Myanmar- Thailand-Cambodia- Vietnam umpteen years ago!!! Instead we find the DaWei Port in Myanmar lingering half-death with no further progress in spite of Japanese support. Fact is there is simply isn't enough trade between India and those ASEAN members , hence the inability to build the rail nor road required! The reality is seen by the increasing usage of the China-Laos rail link which seems to improve Thais trade with China tremendously and with the completion of the Thai- rail-link to Bangkok, then the 3 decade-old Singapore-Kunming rail link should be realized! Indeed plans are free but implementation takes more than just paper works!

Ok so this is my personal opinion. If I were to choose between quality but little expensive or less cost but more profitable, whose seller should I choose?
I know that as a nation there are many expenses that could use of the excess budget from a cheap project but if we are talking about safety and the long run I think I'll choose the safe side now that various cities in every country experience unprecedented calamities. But Ok yeah yeah yeah.....

Well, didn't you want it CHEAP?
@@pahatpahat9566 well yeah, I want that. But if were talking about durability and its lasting even if there's any calamities that hits it, I guess i'll choose the former.
But ok to be more precise, for example Philippines. Here in the Philippines infrastructures are so easy to rust or to break down due to poor construction. And what I'm saying that I want it more safe than cheap because for a long term maybe it'll be good deal for Philippines. The problem is before the projects could even launch, the budget for it is already divided to some obvious corrupt officials. And its effects is a never ending reconstruction on any roads and bridges. Its obvious wasting money. And it even affects transportation and the economy eventually. So, thats my point.

Here is my idea: Japan sees the writing on the wall and offers free Visas and a low level job to anyone in Indochina who can pass a basic elementary test in Japanese and is under the age of 30. While it is not a bad thing that Japan shrink in population, their particularly steep population decline will be bad for the region and the long term life of the country. They could easily solve this problem with a healthier immigration policy.
This is 09:36 what I called the proof of China's debt-trap diplomacy. China's BRI bid was cheaper than Japan's 5-6 years ago but now it's turned out to be way more expensive as the project went by. The Indonesian Govt must add an additional whopping IDR 20 trillion or USD 1,3 billion to the project over cost underestimation.
the cost increase did not come from chinese company, it came from indonesian demanding more compensation from their government. nothing china sold changed in pricing, it not china's control that indonesian want more money from their government. furthermore the reason indonesia choose china isn't because it is cheaper, but because china is offering HSR and Japan is only offering traditional rail.
Because Indonesia smart corruption bro 🤭🤭🤭

Rồi một đêm tôi nằm mơ thấy những nấm mồ mầu trắng ở đó có hình Thánh Giá mầu trắng chung quanh là tím than. Rồi có tiếng hét: Chết hết cả rồi ! Tôi giật mình thức giấc:12 giờ đêm ở Mỹ (1 giờ đêm). Ở Việt Nam là 15 giờ cùng ngày
Rồi một đêm khác tôi nằm mơ thấy hai con chim nhạn bị bắn chết. Tôi nghe nó nói: Nó là anh em sinh đôi. Tôi liền nghĩ là…… và Tận thế
Vậy…… rồi tận thế lúc 12 giờ đêm ở Mỹ (1 giờ đêm). Ở Việt Nam là 15 giờ cùng ngày
CZcams:” Những dòng sông nước chảy như máu từ thế giới 2016 đến 2023” và “Những đàn châu chấu từ thế giới 2016 đến 2023”

Phản Kito là ĐGH
Sắp tận thế lúc 15 giờ cùng ngày
If you are locals and work in a Japanese companies, especially big multinational companies, local people are always treated as second class and paid very low salary, but expect to work long hours with 100% obedient. There is very little chances to be in the top management. In general, the Japanese look down on the local South East Asians and think that they are the elitist class. Japan can never success to counter China in SEA.
I'm one, and I can't relate.
What I have noticed is how lots of trolls behave online 😀

Koreans are also investing heavily in south east asia.

Japanese exports are slowly being overtaken by Korean and Chinese firms, and only now is Japan investing in the infrastructure of Asian countries? It's too little, too late, too naive 😔
Many Japanese companies has been investing in the region since 80s.
Have you just awoken from your long sleep !!!??????
Actually, Japanese are the biggest investor in infrastructure since 1980s in South East Asia. Only, last year did China spend more than Japan. But if you take a look how big China economy is, China still spend little when it comes to investment/GDP compare to Japan.
India is there too support Japan! India have so many peoples Japan have the technology ! And money ! We will do wonders! In India itself a world inside! Lots of potential for Japanese to invest and take return profits!
Japan is our one of the biggest investor!
