According to a statement issued on the official Facebook page of Hon. Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, the Minister for Foreign Affairs indicated that this bilateral engagement with Her Excellency Suzuki Momoko, Chief Representative of JICA in Ghana, focuses on three major priority areas.
Ghana and Japan three priority initiatives are:

- Constructing an interchange in the Ashanti Region to ease congestion.
- Providing technical support to boost rice production in Ghana.
The Foreign Minister also stated that Ghana will participate in TICAD 9, where the country will explore additional partnerships, including scaling up chocolate exports to Japan, considering the increasing demand for Ghanaian chocolate in the Japanese market.
