Attendance at the Cherry Blossoms Reception Hosted by MAFF

March 29, 2018: It was a great pleasure for His Excellency Ambassador Dr. Bashir Mohabbat in attending the Cherry Blossoms Reception hosted by the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries of Japan at Sanbancho Kaigisho in Tokyo.

H.E. Ambassador Dr. Mohabbat had the pleasure in again meeting and conversing with His Excellency Minister Mr. Ken Saito, Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries of Japan, to whom he expressed his gratitude for the kind invitation to attend the splendid event. In return, H.E Minister Saito thanked H.E. Dr. Mohabbat for attending. H.E. Dr. Mohabbat extended his sincere thanks, on behalf of the people and Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan for providing extensive assistance to Afghanistan's agricultural sector. As Afghanistan is aiming to be self-sufficient and self-sustainable in rice cultivation by 2021, the extensive assistance from MAFF has played a large role in this goal. This would allow Afghanistan to better their balance of export and imports for a stable and long-lasting economic growth.

Also in attendance were several of Their Excellencies, Heads of Missions, and Diplomats with missions in Japan, members of parliament, leading businesspeople, and other dignified guests, several of whom H.E. Dr. Mohabbat met with and discussed many topics of mutual interest.
