Netherlands Market Council (FY2008)
Embassy of the Netherlands Publishing Support Project
The Embassy of the Netherlands in Japan planned various events, under the general title of “Nederland in Japan, 2008?2009,” to commemorate these two years, which marked the 150th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Japan and the Netherlands and the 400th anniversary of the establishment of trade relations between the two countries.
This project involved support for one of those programs, the publication of a pamphlet titled NihonOranda - 1609 onward describing the history of exchange between the two countries. The pamphlet, which was highly popular, was distributed to trade and economy officials of the Japanese and Dutch governments and private-sector businesspeople participating in the commemorative events.
