Jiro Hanyu
President, Japan International Transport Institute
Before becoming President of JITI in August of 2002, Mr. Hanyu
had served as an official of the Japanese government for more
than 33 years. He has held various important positions including
Vice-Minister for Transport and International Affairs.
When the Ministerial Conference -A New Challenge for Environmentally
Friendly Transport- was held in Tokyo in January 2002, he played
a leading role in adopting the Ministerial Declaration on Transport
and the Environment and the Transport Ministers’ Statements
on “Prevention of Marine Pollution”, “Urban
Transport and Environment” and “Comprehensive Strategy
for Environmentally Friendly Vehicles.” Under his leadership,
the development of environmentally friendly heavy duty vehicles
including the DME truck started.
From 1994 to 1998, Mr. Hanyu served as the Deputy Director-General,
and later as the Senior Deputy Director-General of the Civil
Aviation Bureau. Mr. Hanyu took the lead in concluding the 1998
Memorandum of Understanding, an historic aviation agreement
between Japan and the United States.
Mr. Hanyu graduated from Tokyo University in 1969 with a bachelor’s
degree in economics.
