Current status of specific skills / accommodation industry

Before the outbreak of the new coronavirus, the number of foreign tourists visiting Japan was on the rise, ranking 3rd in Asia and 11th in the world in terms of number of foreign tourists accepted (Japan Tourism Agency, 2018).
Currently, new entry is restricted, so the situation is quite severe numerically.
In particular, guest houses and hotels that anticipate inbound demand are having a major impact as some companies go bankrupt.

The accommodation industry has been greatly affected by the new coronavirus, but movements are gradually becoming more active in anticipation of the end of the new coronavirus.
The government also aims to increase the number of foreign tourists visiting Japan to 2030 million by 6,000.
