A new process is being introduced where international students waiting to enter Japan will be “prioritised”, the country’s PM Fumio Kishida announced on March 3.
From March, Japan will begin to let international students enter the country, along with any people who are not tourists, according to new information from the country’s prime minister. However, a daily cap on entries presents a whole new set of problems, stakeholders warn.
The Japanese government continues to face backlash as students and wellbeing groups push for “a timeline as soon as possible”, with stakeholders citing "extreme disappointment" at the sluggishness of policy changes.
