The Business Guardian
|February 16, 2025
The Assam government will sign two Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) with Japan and Singapore during the Advantage Assam 2.0 investors summit, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said on Saturday.
Addressing a press conference in Guwahati, CM Sarma said that Japan is interested in recruiting manpower from Assam, initially around 50,000 workers, while Singapore seeks to hire nurses from the state.
Highlighting the progress made since Advantage Assam 1.0, the Chief Minister said, "We got two major infrastructure developments after Advantage Assam 1.0--the Paradeep to Numaligarh crude pipeline. The Union government gave us this massive infrastructure, and the Gas grid."
He also mentioned Bhutan's interest in developing Gelephu My Fullness City.
"Bhutan wants to set up Gelephu My Fullness City. I request that the Bhutan government make a special industrialization economic zone in Assam," CM Sarma said.
"During my recent visit to Singapore, I met the President of Singapore, which is a recognition for Assam," he added.
