Written in the Japanese language, Nobuhiro Takahashi's book is meant to assist Japanese companies either operating in India or planning to invest here to get familiarized with the Indian corporate ecosystem before taking the big leap.
He is also an Advisor to the Japan Chamber of Commerce and Industry in India (JCCII).
Published by a Japanese publishing house Gentosha Renaissance Shinsho, Tokyo, the book attempts to explain a little difference of points – How to make “Human Resource” and “Money”.
“This book concretely summarizes the struggles of a Japanese person who worked in India for 13 years. As an author, I would be very happy if I could be useful to people working in India,” said Nobuhiro Takahashi in an exclusive interaction with Asian Community News (ACN) Network. Recently, he paid a visit to the ACN office to hand over his book to its editor Sanjeev K Ahuja.
Born in 1963, Takahashi is a graduate of the Osaka University of Foreign Studies and takes avid interest in world economic and political developments revolving especially around Japan, India, and China, and he is a staunch supporter of India-Japan friendship.
Out of his long experience, he has penned down in-depth information on the Industrial Relations (IR) scene in the backdrop of human resource development and labour, factory, and wage laws and acts with an apt comparison between India, Japan, China, Thailand, etc. The book also finds mentions of various trade and labor unions and labor unrest incidents reported in the past, especially in Gur
ugram (Haryana). The book offers tips to the Japanese companies on the basis of the learning out of the labour unrest incidents.
According to Nobuhiro Takahashi, there are many books about India, but many of them are about the social situation and tourist information of India, so it is difficult to imagine the country as a whole.
“The reality of India, which is characterized by “unity in diversity” is not conveyed. As one of India’s current directors, I strongly feel that I should tell the people of Japan about the stereotypes of information and the points of management in India that are free from prejudice,” he stated in his book. divided into four sections, the book also mentions the Indian financial management, accounting, taxations issues, and accounting system and practices in the companies registered in India whether wholly-owned Japanese subsidiaries or the joint venture firms. As an active advisor for JCCII, Takahashi has been in regular touch with the Indian government authorities as well as the Prime Minister Office (PMO) and has been contributing key suggestions related to various policy and regulations rolled out by various ministries.
