Far from having an effect of slowing the pace of globalisation, the recent global financial crisis has intensified the process, resulting in a more connected and interdependent world. While - previously - globalisation manifested itself in the form of trade and investment between the emerging and developed world, emerging economies are now becoming more connected with each other within and across regions. This trend is being reinforced by similar changes in the pattern of financial flows.

I am pleased to be here today to commemorate the official launch of Mizuho Corporate Bank (Malaysia) Berhad. The establishment of Mizuho Corporate Bank (Malaysia) Berhad, was the third of the five banks that were granted new commercial banking licences in 2010. This is a significant milestone as the last banking license issued to a foreign bank was in the 1973. The presence of Mizuho Corporate Bank in Malaysia, reflects our commitment to forge stronger economic and financial linkages with Japan and the region. We expect the presence of this new bank to pave the way for increased business and investment opportunities between Japan and Malaysia.
