Five Japanese companies are interested in investing in the Philippines, according to acting Trade Secretary Cristina Roque.
These companies include the Japan Institute of Design and Promotion, electronics manufacturer MinebeaMitsumi, merchandising firm Aeon Co. Ltd., and trading and investment firms Itochu Corp. and Marubeni Corp.
