TOKYO, Feb 28 (Reuters) - The head of Japan's
state-backed chip venture Rapidus will visit the northern island
of Hokkaido on Tuesday to inform Governor Naomichi Suzuki of its
decision regarding the location of a planned microchip plant,
the local government said. 
    Suzuki visited Rapidus President Atsuyoshi Koike earlier
this month to ask him to build the plant in Hokkaido.
