TOKYO， Oct. 14 (Xinhua) -- Apple Inc. Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook said on Friday that he had enjoyed a great meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and shared with the nation's leader how important Japan is for the future of the U.S. tech behemoth.
"We talked about the future and doing great things together. I shared with prime minister Abe our love for Japan and how important the country is to Apple，" Cook， who is currently on a tour of Asia， was quoted as saying at the prime minister's office following their meeting.
Abe's top spokesperson Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga told a press briefing that Cook confirmed that Apple would complete its construction of a site in Yokohama， just outside of Tokyo， by December and that it would be used as a development facility.
The site was previously used by Japan's Panasonic Corp. and Apple's new development plans are evidence the maker of the ubiquitous iPhone has plans connected to Japan that extend well beyond just end user sales， sources close to the matter said Friday.
The Japanese leader， for his part， said he hopes that Apple will go on to establish further ties with companies here in the process of product development， with Cook stating that there were a number of manufacturers of all sizes here being keenly eyed by Apple as having great potential for working on future devices requiring components made here.
In the April-June quarter of this year sales in Japan of Apple products accounted for 8 percent of Apple's total global revenue.
Cook， whose tour will end on Saturday， has already met with some of Apple's partners here and visited the headquarters of Nintendo Co. in Kyoto on Thursday where he met with company President Tatsumi Kimishima and Shigeru Miyamoto， creator of the Super Mario game， and was pictured playing the hotly anticipated iOS title "Super Mario Run" which was unveiled at Apple's latest iPhone 7 launch event last month.
Cook's visit to Japan comes on the heels of a visit to Shenzhen in China， where he announced Apple's plans to open a research and development facility there next year.

BEIJING, Jan. 1 (Xinhua) -- Beijing launched real-name registration for bicycle buyers on Friday while insisting on its voluntary nature and its aim to help fight the city's rampant bicycle thefts.
The public security bureau of Beijing said citizens can choose to leave their names and other personal information at bike stores, which will hand over the information to be compiled into a police database.
An official with the bureau said the move is meant to address a lack of ownership information, a major problem for police in cracking theft cases and returning stolen bikes.
Bike theft is rampant in Beijing and other Chinese cities, spawning a booming underground market for stolen bikes. Beijing police say they nabbed 2,300 suspects between January and November 2015 in a crackdown on bike theft.
Data on the Chinese property market released recently showed there is a boom in the market almost across the board. The strong performance in the property market will allow the government to meet its annual growth target set at the beginning of the year and also mitigates the risks of many local government financing vehicles (LGFVs) and delays the risk exposure of China's banking and financial system.
Two indicators - property sales and financing - are worth making particular note of.
Property sales have been brisk. Commercial property sales by floor area grew 25.5 percent year-on-year in the January-August period while residential property sales by floor area were up 25.6 percent. The value of commercial property sales rose 38.7 percent in the same period while the value of residential property sold surged 40.1 percent. The data show that sales of commercial property by floor area and the total value of residential property sales in the first eight months have almost reached last year's annual level. Meanwhile, more than 90 percent of residential property sales by value were from homes under construction. This situation shows that China's property sales have hit new highs. It also indicates that Chinese developers are busy selling housing under construction and that reducing inventories is not a concern at all.
Currently, the gap in the pace of growth between residential sales by floor area and by value has been narrowing, but the gap is still large. This means that property prices in many cities are still rising rapidly as evidenced by the data released Monday which showed 64 out of 70 major cities tracked by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) posted home.
