Nevertheless, Pakistan remained high under Japan`s Official Development Assistance (ODA) programme and received about 18% of aid during the period 1961-1971. However, the war in the former East Pakistan and the assistance provided by the Japanese Red Cross (Seki Juji) to refugees who had fled to Calcutta in India created differences between Pakistan and Japan. Japan considered and supported the crisis of East Pakistan due to Bengal nationalism. On the other hand, Japan did not support Vietnamese self-determination. Contrary to what Pakistan calls the “Kashmir conflict,” Japan has not adopted a complete neutrality with regard to the East Pakistan issue. Japanese political parties and social groups supported the cause of Bangladesh`s creation. The war of liberation in Bangladesh soon broke out in eastern Pakistan; Japan has closed its consulate general in Dhaka and ended aid to Pakistan. Japan recognized Bangladesh in two months, on February 10, 1972, and called for more Pakistani criticism. Half of the Japanese loans were consumed in eastern Pakistan and it refused to honour and repay these loans, with Japan recognizing Bangladesh before Pakistan made up its mind. Pakistan-Japan Convention to avoid double taxation and prevention of tax evasion with regard to income taxes It looks like a great opportunity for all Pakistani brothers. I would be interested in the need to go further to begin the visa process.

Pakistan played a leading role in Japan`s economic recovery in the 1950s, mainly by exporting cotton and jute to Japan, with textiles virtually the only industry to continue under Allied occupation. SCAP-Japan sent its first trade mission to Pakistan in May 1948, under the direction of R. Eaton. Two months later, Japan signed a trade agreement with Pakistan, which was also Japan`s first post-war trade agreement. Much of Pakistan`s export was on deferred payments, because Japan was not on currencies. In exchange for cotton and jute, Pakistan imported textile machinery from Japan. As a result, a mutually beneficial commercial relationship has been established. In addition, a Japanese trade liaison agency was established in 1948 in Karachi, which also served as a diplomatic source in Japan after the war.

In September 1948, Pakistan sent its first trade mission under Mirza Abul Isphahani to Japan to examine the Japanese textile industry for the benefit of Pakistan. Another SCAP-Japan trade mission, led by E.B. Blatcheley, visited Pakistan in February 1949 and two other trade missions led by B.W. Adams and A.B. Snell visited Pakistan to negotiate cotton and jute for Japanese industry. These visits paved the way for many other trade delegations in Pakistan to promote trade and other economic activities between the two countries. I look forward to this great opportunity between relations between the two countries, I would certainly be interested in the jobs to come in Japan, Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi visited Pakistan on April 30-1.
