BEIJING, October 22 (Xinhua) — The Chinese market remains crucial for Japanese companies even after Japan's direct investment in China declined further last year due to a combination of domestic and external factors, according to a recently published report by the Institute of Japanese Studies of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
The 2025 Blue Book on the Japanese Economy examines Japan's economy in the changing global economic environment.
It is noted that in 2024, the complementary nature of bilateral Sino-Japanese trade remained clearly pronounced despite the growing asymmetry of trade interdependence between the two countries.
According to the report, this year has seen opportunities for China and Japan to deepen cooperation, even as bilateral relations face challenges such as rising protectionism, fragmented supply chains and slowing economic growth.
The authors of the blue book call on the two countries to deepen economic cooperation in the Asia-Pacific region, as well as cooperation in third-country markets within the framework of the Belt and Road Initiative.
The report also notes the opportunity to realize synergies through structural complementarities and expand cooperation in areas such as the “silver economy” (economic activity related to the needs and interests of the older generation), achieving the “dual carbon targets” (peaking carbon dioxide emissions by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060), and the digital economy.
The report provides a systematic analysis and review of Japan's macroeconomic indicators, key economic policy priorities, and future trends in its economy. –0–
