Shinzo Abe Film Project: First Scenes and Sponsorship Announced in Vietnam

On September 16–17, 2025, the production team of the Shinzo Abe Film, a signature project of the AIWS Film Park, held important meetings in Nha Trang and began filming the first scenes. The settings—the AIWS House Nha Trang and the President Room of the Potique Hotel—provided the backdrop for opening sequences honoring Prime Minister Abe’s legacy of peace, democracy, and Indo-Pacific cooperation.

On the evening of September 17, the project was formally introduced to leaders and stakeholders at Ham Kiem 2, Mui Ne, Phan Thiet, Lam Dong Province, Vietnam. The event was attended by Vice Governor of Lam Dong Nguyen Hong Hai, HZ Group leaders, and distinguished business and media figures.

Representing the Boston Global Forum (BGF) and the AI World Society (AIWS) were Nguyen Anh Tuan, Co-Founder, Co-Chair, and CEO of BGF; Yasuhide Nakayama, Representative of BGF in Japan and Former State Minister of Japan; and Vibhav Kant Upadhyay, Chair of the India Center Foundation and Representative of BGF in India, a close friend of both Shinzo Abe and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Together, they highlighted the Shinzo Abe Initiative, a cornerstone of BGF–AIWS efforts to advance peace and security in the Indo-Pacific.

A major milestone was achieved when HZ Group announced sponsorship of USD 100,000 to support the Shinzo Abe Film project. This contribution underscores strong regional and business community support for preserving Abe’s vision through film and culture.

The Shinzo Abe Film, guided by the spirit of the BGF–AIWS Family, aims not only to commemorate Abe’s leadership but also to inspire future generations to carry forward his legacy of democratic resilience and global peace.
