Record $56b spent in Japan by foreign visitors

A record high of ¥4.5 trillion (S$56 billion) was spent in Japan in 2018 by foreign visitors, according to the Japan Tourism Agency on Wednesday. The consumption per visitor, however, has continued to decline in recent years.

The government is looking at ways to stimulate visitors' consumption in order to achieve its target of ¥8 trillion spent in 2020.

The number of visitors to Japan in 2018 reached 31.19 million, exceeding the 30 million mark for the first time. The government's target of 40 million visitors in 2020 is in sight.
