(2) Compulsory Education Under the compulsory education system, all children are required to attend and graduate both elementary and junior high school. Although the compulsory education requirement applies only to Japanese nationals, non-Japanese children between the ages of 6-15 living in Japan are able to attend elementary and junior high school at the same cost as a Japanese child regardless of their nationality. Additionally, in 1994, Japan ratified the “Convention on the Rights of the Child” adopted by the UN General Assembly in 1989. This convention mandates that the right of all children to an education must be recognized. While Japan does not mandate that the guardians of non-Japanese children force their children to receive an education, children are guaranteed their right to one.

Tourism As a Key for Regional Revitalization?: a Quantitative Evaluation of Tourism Zone Development in Japan
sustainability Article Tourism as a Key for Regional Revitalization?: A Quantitative Evaluation of Tourism Zone Development in Japan Hyunjung Kim 1 and Eun Jung Kim 2,* 1 Institute of Construction and Environmental Engineering, Seoul National University, Seoul 08826, Korea; [email protected] 2 Department of Urban Planning, Keimyung University, Daegu 42601, Korea * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +82-53-580-5247 Abstract: Since the dawn of the 21st century, Japan has switched its national industry strategy from traditional industries—manufacturing and trading—toward tourism. Regional revitalization is a particularly important issue in Japan, and by uniting regions as an integrated tourism zone, the government expects an increase in visits to tourism zones. This study quantitatively evaluates whether the regions that contain a tourism zone experience a significant increase in visitors by using a quasi-experimental pretest–posttest control group design. Additionally, it examines the effects of subsidies through regression modeling. The results indicated that the tourism zones that were comprised of a narrow region in the same prefectures experienced a significant increase in visitors. The subsidy on information transmission, measures for the secondary traffic, and space formation had a significant positive impact on the increase in visitors to these tourism zones. Implications on tourism policies, urban and regional development, and community development can be obtained through this study. Keywords: tourism zone development; regional revitalization; tourism nation; Japanese tourism Citation: Kim, H.; Kim, E.J. Tourism policy; tourism policy evaluation; pretest and posttest control group design as a Key for Regional Revitalization?: A Quantitative Evaluation of Tourism Zone Development in Japan.

A Mediator Between Young People and Local Companies to Save Our Town
A Mediator Between Young People and Local Companies to Save Our Town 3103 Mimi Iwata Introduction A decline in population is one of the biggest problems in Japan, especially in the countryside. Minamiuonuma city, located in the southern part of Niigata prefecture, is greatly influenced by this phenomenon. It is inevitable for Minamiuonuma city to overcome this problem. In Minamiuonuma city, the number of young people is so few. The city hall has been carrying out some new policies that encourage young generation to come back, but they have not resulted well yet. So we need something new to address this problem. Problems The problem in Minamiuonuma city is the lack of young human resources. It leads to the decline in its industry and citizens will have difficulty living in, eventually. It will be difficult to improve the city’s overall industry. According to the survey of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (2017), the population of Minamiuonuma city decreased by 11.0% from 2000 to 2015. Seirou-machi, located in Niigata city, increased by 5.0%. Seirou-machi has the highest rate of increase in the population in Niigata prefecture. The population of 15 to 34 year-olds dexreased by 13% in Minamiuonuma city and has not so changed in Seirou-machi. It can be said that there is a big gap between Minamiuonuma city and Seirou-machi even if these two cities are located in the same prefecture. So we have to diminish the gap and solve the lack of young people. Solutions To solve this situation, I suggest introducing a UTA system, which stands for Uonuma Tactic Association.
