Hokkaido-New Zealand Relationship ２!

by Kazu

Once Mr. Tsuchiya retired from the position as Director General for Agriculture in Hokkaido Prefectural Government and worked for Hokkaido Bank to develop the agricultural business in Hokkaido.

He came back to Hokkaido Prefectural Government as Vice Governor. That is unusual in the world of prefectural governments but the new governor Naomichi Suzuki promised to assign a new vice governor from private sector It might have been hard for the person in private sector to settle in the prefectural government world and its unwritten rules but Mr. Tsuchiya has already got used to such custom and have the career in the private sector. That fitted the official promise of Governor Suzuki to a T.  Agriculture is the key industry of Hokkaido and Mr. Tsuchiya knows what the prefectural government should do for the development and the protection of agricultural business in of Hokkaido amply.
