JAPAN RELAXES COVID-19 BORDER RULES, BUT AN INCREASE IN TOURISTS IS UNSURE

 

According to business officials, unless tourists are given more freedom to travel within Japan, the country's looser border controls, which went into effect on Wednesday and increased the daily maximum on arrivals from 20,000 to 50,000, won't result in a flood of visitors to boost the economy.

The government's decision to decrease the entry threshold remains restrictive, they claim, hindered by its persistent caution regarding the coronavirus pandemic, and tourists will continue to forego Japan in favor of more hospitable nations despite the low value of the yen.

In response to people starting to move in other regions of the world, Prime Minister Fumio Kishida stated at a press conference last week that he wants Japan to "follow the trend."

To that purpose, the requirement of a negative COVID-19 test within 72 hours after departure has been replaced with the ostensibly less onerous requirement of triple vaccination proof. Additionally, guides won't be required to travel with tourists.

According to data issued on August 26 by the Japan Tourism Agency, South Korea, the United States, Thailand, Australia, and France were the top five nations with the greatest number of travellers planned to visit Japan.

A manager at the well-known Japanese travel company H.I.S. Co. expressed satisfaction over the loosened travel restrictions for foreigners and added the wish that if airline routes to Southeast Asia were to resume, more tickets would be sold, increasing revenue.

The daily average of more than 140,000 for arrivals in 2019 will be significantly below that amount.

If limitations on visas, the daily entry cap, and individual travel are not totally relaxed, it is difficult to foresee a boom in tourists, a tourism sector representative claimed.

Contrary to its neighbor South Korea, which recently extended its visa waiver for Japanese citizens through the end of October, Japan still suspends its visa exemptions.

A single-entry visa to Japan costs roughly 3,000 yen and must be applied for. In theory, visas are issued within five days of application.

ACTING PM UNVEILED A CRUCIAL NEW TOOL FOR DEFENCE RESEARCHERS

Image
  It's time for a new piece of cutting-edge technology to reach our shores after autonomous vehicles, robot dogs from Snowy Hydro, and now. A new supercomputer programme that is up to a million times quicker than a regular computer has been officially inaugurated by the acting prime minister and minister of defence Richard Marles. Defence experts will be able to analyse massive data sets and carry out complex calculations quickly thanks to the cutting-edge technology, which is the first of its type in Australia. This will help them handle some of the most challenging scientific and technical issues. The new device is expected to help us advance important AUKUS goals like nuclear-powered submarines, quantum technologies, and artificial intelligence by aiding in the design, development, and analysis of contemporary military systems and national security systems.

US MOBILE LAB TESTS COVID-19

  Today, the United States Department of Health and Human Services handed over a mobile biosafety laboratory that had been donated by that institution to the Sindh Department of Health. The Sindh Department of Health in Pakistan was the recipient of a mobile biosafety laboratory that was presented by the United States government today. PUBLISH WITH US Your Content:  https://bit.ly/3pOkePK   This was done to improve the department's ability to diagnose COVID-19 and other communicable diseases, particularly in Pakistan's more remote areas, where there is only a limited capacity to monitor and test for potential outbreaks of infectious disease. This was done in order to improve the department's ability to diagnose COVID-19 and other communicable diseases. The precision of diagnoses will noticeably increase as a direct result of the use of this cutting-edge laboratory. In addition to this, the amount of time required to complete tests will be cut down, and the security of the m
