Malaysians can now visit Japan without having to undergo strenuous visa requirements as the Japanese government is relaxing its visa requirements to encourage more tourists from emerging nations in Southeast Asia.
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has determined it is necessary to lure more travelers from fast-growing economies to attain its goal of increasing the annual number of foreign visitors.
The government is expected to consider waiving visas for tourists from Thailand and Malaysia as well as offering multiple-entry visas to travelers from the Philippines and Vietnam. (Source)
