The President felicitated the Emperor's son and Crown Prince Naruhito on his birthday (today) and invited him to visit Pakistan.
The Emperor recalled his visit to Pakistan in the early 60s as Crown Prince and said that he fondly remembered the visit.
This was President Zardari's second meeting with the Emperor Akihito. In April, 2009, President Asif Ali Zardari met him when he visited Japan leading Pakistan’s delegation at the Friends of Democratic Pakistan meeting.
Zardari is on a three day visit to Japan to help boost bilateral cooperation and open up new areas for trade and investment between the two countries.
